Aggregator stage derivation definition

Post by JeroenDmt »

Is there an easy way to define the derivations for an aggregator stage.
A lot of times we have jobs where the input of the aggregator stage is a collection of a lot of columns, and the output is the same set of columns where a few columns are grouped on, and the rest are summarized.
This requires a lot of mouse-clicks and for each field browsing through the list of columns to pick the correct corresponding input-field with the same name.
Is there an easier way to do this?

Alas, no.

Perhaps an enhancement request?

Yah... some kind of auto matching or propagation option would be nice, wouldn't it.
