Hi,

I have a problem with surrrogate key,ds 8.x.
In surrogate key stage, i want to reset the key value after reaching the particular value(For example ending value 10000) then it will start from begining(for ex 1 2 3 4 ..........10000 ,1 2 3 ........10000).


plz provide the solution

Thanks
Ravi

Hi,
Instead of using this Surrogate key use row generator and give
Intial value = 1
Final value = 10000
Increment value =1
It will Satisfy your Requirement

A surrogate key provides uniqueness. What you are requiring is not uniqueness. Therefore the Surrogate Key Generator stage is not the right stage to use. The approach suggested by Manoj will get you close, though generating the 10000 values in parallel on each node. A better solution will involve an expression that refers to the partition number and the number of partitions.

Hi Manoj,

Thak u for sagition but i useing coloumn generator stage i have faced a problem that is if i given limit value is 1000 then it will come only 762 after it will come from first onwards supose if given limit value 2000 then it will come only 1762 after it will come first onwards can u give any sagition
