I have a parallel job which gets its data from a Exec command in Sequence job.
The output of the Exec cmd (lets say A) is appended to the data in the
text file. Delimiter is | . The text file can have 2 records. So A is
appended at the end of both the records.
The Sequence file in the parallel job will be reading 5 files based on pattern and A
will be different in each file.

I need to use a transformer compulsory to see that the A is not
repeated more than once. (Sample data of A = Nov 16 08:24)

The steps I did:
I defined A column as varchar in Sequence file.
In transformer: right(A,1)= d (stage var)
if d = c then 'Y else 'N' = b (stage variable)
d = c (stage variable)

Constraints: b='N'

I not able to get the right output. It is taking all records as
unique. I can see the data in A column. When I say A = c, it is
assigning the value to c but it is not able to compare the data. I am
able to see the data present in c in the output.

If I hardcoded the comparison value then I am able to see the right output.
Eg. if in transformer: i give : if d='4' then 'Y' else 'N'
(if last char in the string is 4)

I am not sure why it is not comparing d & c.

d&c are defined as varchar. If I give AsInteger(right(A,1)) , it shows
transformer error while compiling. Since A is the output from Unix cmd
will there be any different datatype for that?

If you have doubt on-

Since A is the output from Unix cmd
will there be any different datatype for that?

Then you can apply the below on the execute command output Or
Please let me know if it is not helpfull.
