Not Supported
Use the following rules and guidelines when you configure the Integration Service to push Sorter transformation logic to a database:
  • The Integration Service pushes the Sorter transformation to the database and processes downstream transformations when the Sorter transformation is configured for a distinct sort and is pushed to a Microsoft SQL Server, Sybase, or Teradata database.
  • If a mapping contains multiple, consecutive Sorter transformations and at least one Sorter transformation is configured for a distinct sort, the following results:
    • Pushdown optimization applies the distinct sort to the last Sorter transformation in the chain unless one of the Sorter transformations does not project all output ports.
    • Pushdown optimization applies the distinct sort to the first Sorter transformation that does not project all output ports.
The Integration Service processes the Sorter transformation if any of the following conditions are true:
  • The Sorter transformation is downstream from a Union transformation and the port used as a sort key in the Sorter transformation is not projected from the Union transformation to the Sorter transformation.
  • The Sorter transformation does not project all output ports and it is one of multiple, consecutive Sorter transformations in a mapping.
  • The Sorter transformation does not project all output ports and one of the following statements is true:
    • The Sorter transformation is configured for a distinct sort.
    • The Sorter transformation is immediately preceded by one or more Sorter transformations, one of which is configured for a distinct sort.
