Sounds good to me...does it work nicely to a flat file? [always FIRST test ISD jobs with a flat file or other type of source to a flat file target]

There's no such thing ...your service will be defined by a "contract", also known as a WSDL. It will have a particular result. That result is fixed...it could have variances "inside of it", but the overall possibilities will be fixed. It sounds like your client tools are not expe...

Are you certain that it is going into the xmlStage with the right row assignements (the values)? At quick glance, the structure looks good, nicely single nested. Is there any sorting or aggregation going on upstream? Are you running this in single node (just in case there are other data issues going...

Assuming you are using 8.1.1 or 8.1.2, there is a pull down on the left frame....find and select "hosts". Whatever you chose during import as your "host" will show you a tree with your metadata beneath it.

What bridge did you use? ODBC would be the most likely....... another good choice for Teradata import would be to use the Teradata Connector via DataStage using the Connector Wizard...

ditto to Andy...keep asking away. Even sites who are willing to move up to new releases often have old ones still "online"..... A "4.x" question might get some raised eyebrows, but even there, we'll probably take a stab at it....

look thru the threads here......there are some important steps... a) did you import your xml document or xsd? b) do you have a table definition with xpath syntax in the description property of each column? (this is constructed when you do the import in "a")...this table definition needs to...

Build the job and your logic with a single sequential file as the target......make sure you always write at least "one row" with a result to the sequential file, regardless of what happens upstream.....once you get it perfect as you want, replace the sequential file with wisdOutput.

In Unix/Linux, as I recall, MQ uses the process ID......the challenge is required for Windows....so the old plugin was smart and only displayed the userid and pw if needed.

There's no need to convert....the jobs will still work "as is" with the Plugin...and if you were using the plugin, you were using MQ Server because the Plugin never supported MQ Client....

...is your MQ Server co-resident with DataStage....then use MQ Server.
