Hi ,
I have added a SCD type 2 transormation in my job.
My current output is
Buisiness key start_date end_date Current_row
AAA 12MAY2014 12DEC2999 0
AAA 13MAY2014 12DEC2999 1
How do I set the end_date for the 1 record as 13MAY2014 ? Please find what I mean below
Buisiness key start_date end_date Current_row
AAA 12MAY2014 13MAY2014 0
AAA 13MAY2014 12DEC2999 1
2) Also when I use this Target table in another job , what condition should i give, so that I get only the latest record ?
I mean will SAS DI take the latest record without mentioning any condition iin Extract Transformation ?
It's not clear how your logic works. How are you defining end_date in the flow/SCD Type 2 transform? What does your transaction/input data look like?
If you wish to change an end date if it's not current row, should either be done only if it's not part of change tracking (set it as Type 1 columns), or has to be done as an ad-hoc administrative activity.
