I have different columns that i need to transform in my project. For example i have SSN in around 20 tables that i need to transform to a different value. Is it possible to transform the SSN column in all these 20 tables in a single job? Currently i am coding one job per each table.
Thanks in advance?

Re: transforming a common column in different tables in one
Can you provide some information on what you are doing with the SSN?kirankota79 wrote:I have different columns that i need to transform in my project.

Need to know:
- Are you reading from all 20 tables?
- What is the update (1 table, 20 tables, flat files)
- Is there any logical way to break down the data?

i am reading SSN from all the 20 tables from an oracle database through oracle enterprise stage and need to update all the oracle tables with a new SSN. SSN is key in some tables and non key in some tables.
they have given the list of tables and told me to transform the SSN to a dummy or some other value. They have granted the privileges that need for oracle stage. I don't have much information on the database side.

If they are all in one Transformer stage select them all, right click and use Derivation Substitution to enter the transformation expression once.
If they are in separate Transformer stages the answer is no, but you still have copy-and-paste available.
