The behaviour of CFF stage

Post by Gokul »

Hi,

I am trying to read cobol files using CFF.
The file has field with occurance clause.
But the behaviour of CFF stage in server and parallel seems different.

e.g if I have source with 10 occurance for a field.
In the server jobs, I am getting 1o rows as output,
whereas in parallel job, it is comming in a singlerecord with all occurances as seperate fields.

There seems discrepancy in behaviour of CFF in server/parallel jobs.

thanks,
Gokul

Well, the same effect is also possible in server CFF stage if you ask it to flatten the occurs.
When you load the cfd, does it ask you to flatten it? No experience with enterprise cff stage so I have to ask.
Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.
