Hi,
Almost summer
I have a parallel job that creates a sequential file.
I want the first row to have column names.
I also do not want the file to be created if there are zero records being processed. Currently the job creates a file with just column names in this case.
Is there a way to achieve this?

kind regards,
Riya

Short answer: you can't. Longer answer: don't run the job when your source is empty, check before and then run conditionally. Worst case: build something to run After Job and delete the file if it is "empty".

you can get the count of records and conditionally bypass the file creation if you are willing to move the parallel job into a sequence job and break it up. Is it worth it?
