What is your business rule for "last day of week"? In some countries weeks run from Sunday to Saturday, in other countries Monday to Sunday, etc. Without that knowledge no generic answer can be given.

Partition and sort your data with a Sort stage, generating a key change column. In a Transformer stage initialize a stage variable and use it

    to increment the count if the key change column is 0

Next time you're discussing this with someone technical, the language to use is that "a modal dialog box opens but does not get focus".

A more tedious way to find the modal dialog box is to minimize every other window. "Show desktop" sometimes works, but not always.

Only you can resolve the "issue". You have created user-defined SQL that does not use the same number of columns as in your metadata. In particular, if your SQL generates the key value (for example using a database sequence), then the key column should not appear in the metadata. The metad...
