Selecting Distinct Values

Selecting Distinct Values

If you want the PowerCenter Integration Service to select only unique values from a PeopleSoft Record, use the Select Distinct option.
For example, you enable the select distinct in an Application Source Qualifier. The Designer adds SELECT DISTINCT to the default query, as follows:
SELECT DISTINCT PS_PROJ_VARY_BA_VW.SETID, PS_PROJ_VARY_BA_VW.BUSINESS_UNIT, PS_PROJ_VARY_BA_VW.PROJECT_ID FROM PS_PROJ_VARY_BA_VW
You might use Select Distinct to extract unique customer IDs from a table listing total sales. You can filter out unnecessary data early in the data flow, which improves session performance.
By default, the PowerCenter Integration Service uses a SELECT statement to select all data.
To use Select Distinct:
  1. In the Mapping Developer, edit an Application Source Qualifier transformation, and select the Properties tab.
  2. Check Select Distinct.
  3. Click OK to close the dialog box and save your changes.
    The Designer adds SELECT DISTINCT to the default query.
