"Expected Identifier error" in Px job

Hi,

I am getting the following error in a Px job:
APT_CombinedOperatorController,1: Expected identifier; got: "2003"

Does anyone know how to resolve this error?
I couldnt find a solution for this in the existing posts.

In the job I am doing a join between 2 sequential files. After the join I have done Null Handling in a transformer. This transformer is followed by another transformer which does the mapping of input to the output schema.

Regards,
Abhishek

I got the reason for this error.

In the trasnformer where mapping is done, I have used a function IsValid to check if a date is valid.
If I remove this function then the job runs fine.

Regards,
Abhishek

No you have not got the reason, you have removed a cause. I suspect that the reason was an unquoted date.
