Input column does not promote to output column

Everything on the input link must exist on the output link.

Including the mentioned "D_CAL" column? Worst case delete the stage and set it up again from scratch.

There are fields in the sorter stage which are numeric and date fields which are been passed as varchar fields,

can this be the issue ? craige

Possibly. Both the column names and data types must match for it to "map" properly. Do they?

Sort Input stage has

Varchar,varchar,varchar,decimal,varchar,varchar
D_PERD_STRT,D_PERD_END,D_CAL,SUM,ID,I_PLT
2010-12-13,2010-12-13,2010-12-13,12,1,08475


Output has
Varchar,varchar,varchar,decimal,varchar,varchar
D_PERD_STRT,D_PERD_END,D_CAL,SUM,ID,I_PLT
2010-12-13,2010-12-13,2010-12-13,12,1,08475

You need another set of eyes on site to check your work, everything you've posted looks fine so far. Not sure what else to tell you. What other settings are you using in the stage? Is "D_CAL" mentioned elsewhere, in your Sort Specification perhaps? :?
