Update an Output Group

You can update a Normalizer transformation output group. You can add or remove the fields in the group.

By default, the Developer tool creates level 1 output groups when you define an input hierarchy. The Developer tool does not include records in the groups. You can update the default output groups and add records to them.

To update an output group, highlight the group name and click

New

Update Group

. The

Edit Output Group

dialog box shows the fields in the input hierarchy. Choose which fields to include in the group.

Update Output Group Example

In the previous example, the Developer tool created a default output group with the CustomerID, FirstName, and LastName fields.

The following image shows the default output group:

The default output group contains the CustomerID, FirstName, and LastName.

You can update the default output group and add the Address record to it.

The following image shows the

Edit Output Group

dialog box:

In this example, the CustomerID, FirstName, and LastName are level 1 nodes. The Address record is also a level 1 node. The Normalizer transformation can return Address in the same row as the customer data. Since Address is multiple-occurring, the Developer tool adds the GCID_Address index to the output gorup.

The following image shows the ports in the Output group:

The Output group contains all the fields in the Input hierarchy and it includes a GCID address field.

When the customer fields and the multiple-occurring address fields are in the output group, the Normalizer transformation returns the same customer fields for each instance of the address data.

The following example shows the rows that the Normalizer transformation generates from the output group:

100, Robert, Bold, 100 Summit Dr, Redwood City, CA, United States,1
100, Robert, Bold, 41 Industrial Way, San Carlos, CA, United States,2
200, James, Cowan, 85 McNulty Way, Los Angeles, CA, United States,1
200, James, Cowan, 55 Factory Street, Los Vegas, NV, United States,2
