Px Field level Warnings(The modify operator keeps field)

[Sreedhar]

HI,

The modify operator keeps field "Field-Name" which is not present in the output interface.

Initially I though that the job must be having the modify stage where in which this problem is coming up, but unfortunately there is no such stage in the job, it is a simple extract job where in which DB2 stage -> Sort -> Filter ->DS with in the filter a column is dropped. It didn't give any problem in DEV but I am encountering these warnings in Production.

Did any one of you come across such a situation. If yes please do let me know how you have resolved it.

Thanks In adv...

At a guess you have specified a field in a KEEP specification but not in the record schema for the output link. There's nothing automatic in the Modify stage - it gets its speed from its simplicity. But that means you have to do the work.

You encounter this kind of warning when you drop a column in between and define that column later on.

You said you dropped a column in filter stage. But you must have defined the column again in the stage after "filter" stage. Since RCP already knows that that column existed before, it gives you that warning message.

Please check your metadata in DS, and also the column mapping in filter stage.

My guess is the warning may be coming from the db2 stage. May in the select statement, use an AS command and give the same name that is mentioned in the column name.
thks.

Hi

I think the RCP is on at the project level. Disable the RCP and try.
