Hi

I have a job in which a transformer accepts records having 84 fields in each.There are 8 constraints to be handled with the output records also having 84 fields each.

Since one transformer cannot handle so many columns,the input has been provided to 2 transformers.However,a run time error occurs

[b]

main_program: Fatal Error: Not a v1.1 type: date[/b]

Help needed urgently.

Hi

I think this is not probem with no of columns in the Transformer.

I hope you need to re design before data loading into transformer stage.

Thanks

Hi,

There is an environment variable called 'APT_AUTO_TRANSFER_BLOCK" (I am not sure the variable name) and this variable is set 'True' then this problem occurs. Check this variable and set it to 'False'

Hope this would help.

The statement that a Transformer stage cannot handle as many as 84 columns will come as a surprise to those who are handling hundreds of columns through this stage type.

No, your problem is elsewhere. Can you please post the exact and entire text of the error/warning message(s) associated with the job abend?

In the Administrator, set the option APT_AUTO_TRANSPORT_BLOCK_SIZE
to false.
