I assume you need to give it a "shell" extension, not a Windows one - try .sh rather than .bat or .txt and let us know if it works more better.

Boolean values don't need to be explicitly set - in essence they set themselves to true or false based on the expression. So... If IsNull(FldName_1) THEN '0' ELSE '1' Could be replaced with: Not(IsNull(FldName_1)) And then you simply reference the stage variable in the const...

In the Server plug-in, it's pretty obvious. You'll need to find that option in the PX version, something I can't help you with. Isn't there a "Help" button in the stage?

Topic: Importing - Upgrading Jobs
Replies: 1
Views: 1174

There's a built in "routine" (for lack of a better word) that always checks imported jobs to see if they need to be "upgraded" to the latest version. I guess it would matter if you were actually importing from an older Server version - were you? If not, I'd not worry about it. Worst case, export and...

Ugh. I use separate jobs for each table and run them in the proper order. Transaction Size is always 0 so there's no "inconsistent data", it is all or nothing and the jobs ensure no "exceptions" occur that we have control over.

Topic: get filename

It's an optional property of the Sequential File stage in PX to include the filename. For Server jobs, since you need to tell it the filename (typically via a job parameter) just use the parameter as the derivation of an additional field within your link.

Not sure how anyone can help without knowing what "aborts" you are getting. Please post the actual error message(s) from the job's log.
