Problem with Transform

[zulfi123786]

I have defined a transform to accept an argument having the dataelement "Month.tag" but when i am actually calling the transform in the transformer stage a column having dataelement "Year.tag" is passed, I was expecting the job to abort as the data elements do not match but it ran fine with out any warnings. Is this the way it is supposed to happen or atleast the job should give a warning. Please enlighten

Thanks.

DataStage server is not strongly typed; actually it is not really typed at all as the underlying engine really only knows about numeric and string data. Thus your job's behaviour is as expected.
