Step 1. Create the Mapping and Configure Mapping Parameters

Create a mapping with an Expression transformation that writes to a local flat file target. Define input parameters for the mapping.

Create a mapping to process data from a MOVIES file. Use a Read transformation to read from the data source.

Include an Expression transformation immediately after the source. The Expression transformation includes an expression to aggregate the output value.

Use a Write transformation to write the result to a local flat file target.

The following image shows the mapping: The editor shows a mapping that includes a Read transformation, Expression transformation, and Write transformation. The mapping reads from a file called MOVIES and writes to a flat file.

view.

Create a parameter that will accept the persisted mapping output value called col_id_val. Set a default value for the parameter.

Create a parameter for the name of the ID column in the source table called col_id_name.

The following image shows the mapping parameters: The Parameters view shows the two mapping parameters, col_id_val and col_id_name. col_id_val has the type 'double', precision set to 15, scale set to 0, and default value set to 0.0. col_id_name has the type 'string', precision set to 1000, scale set to 0, and default value set to 'id2.'

The Parameters view shows the two mapping parameters, col_id_val and col_id_name. col_id_val has the type 'double', precision set to 15, scale set to 0, and default value set to 0.0. col_id_name has the type 'string', precision set to 1000, scale set to 0, and default value set to 'id2.'

Create a parameter set that includes the col_id_name parameter. Set the value for the parameter to MOVIES.ID.
