No, rejects in PX come from the passive stages.

A Reject link from a Parallel Transformer can be included in your design. It will capture write or expression evaluation failures, especially NULL handling problems.

From the Parallel's Developer Guide page 16-1 ;
Transformer stages can have a single input and any number of
outputs. It can also have a reject link that takes any rows which have
not been written to any of the outputs links by reason of a write failure
or expression evaluation failure.
I'm not sure to what ArndW is referring.
