Defining the action on data

Procedure

  1. In the Action on data list, select the action you want to carry on, Delete in this example.
  2. Click Sync columns to retrieve the schema from the preceding component. In this example, we want to retrieve the input column: address.
  3. Click the three-dot button next to Edit Schema to open a dialog box where you can verify the retrieved schema.
  4. In the output schema, select the Key check box next to the column name you want to define as a key column, and then click OK to validate your changes and close the dialog box.
    Information noteNote:

    When you select Delete as an action on data, you must always define the Reference column as a key column in order for tMSAXOutput to delete rows based on this key column.

  5. In the Additional columns list, click the plus button to add one line and define the parameters the component will use as basis for the delete operation.
  6. Set a name, an operator, a data type, a local expression, a position and a reference column in the corresponding columns for the line you added.
    In this example, we want to delete from the ADDRESS table in the MicrosoftAX server all rows in which the address column is not equal to the address in the key address column and that reads as the following: New York-Midtown Manhattan.
    Information noteNote:

    When you select Delete as an action on data, you must always set Position to Replace. Otherwise, all settings in the Additional columns will not be taken into account when executing your Job.
