Marking the Effective Date

Marking the Effective Date

The Type 3 Dimension mapping can optionally note the date on which the Integration Service creates or updates a dimension. If you choose this option, the Designer creates the PM_EFFECT_DATE column. The Integration Service enters the system date in this column each time it creates a new row or updates a row.
