Hi,
What is the data type of the target field and input field?
Are you using any routine/function in transformer for converting input date value?

Hi,

DataStage Job 1399 Phantom 22463
Program "JOB.769250073.DT.1337842651.TRANS1": Line 239, Nonnumeric data when numeric required. Zero used.

means that if you'll look in the RT_BP1399 directory in your project directory you'll find the basic code of your compiled job transformer (named "JOB.769250073.DT.1337842651.TRANS1"), in it at line 239 is the exact expression that had the error.
to get the exact colum name search in the beginning of the file for the related symbol to the expression at line 239.
after doing this you'll have the exact column name and you still need to find why it had the unexpected value in it.
it could be due to having the wrong table definition or garbage data or some other odd reason.

Good Luck,

Hi,
its date type format
Thanks,
