Set the Lookup Failed rule to "Continue" and make sure that columns on the reference input and columns on the output that are derived from these are all marked as Nullable.

Apply this logic in constraints tab

Condition Not Met : Fail
Lookup Failure : Continue

then you will get the Leftouter join results .

If we set the Condition Not Met=FAIL, job will fail.I guess we need to give the Condition Not Met=DROP.Correct me if i am wrong

Condition not met is only relevant if you apply a condition (i.e. a condition to determine if the lookup should be done). If you aren't applying a condition, set this to whatever you like

You are wrong.

This is because the Condition Not Met rule is irrelevant to the original question.
