Lineage for mapped fields

Lineage for mapped fields

When you view the lineage for a field that is mapped to another field, the lineage includes both the incoming and output fields.
For example, you have a Normalizer transformation that normalizes incoming quarterly sales data. You create the normalized field Y with an occurs value of 4.
In the Normalizer transformation, you configure the following field mapping:
Incoming field
Normalized field
Q1
Y_1
Q2
Y_2
Q3
Y_3
Q4
Y_4
The normalized field Y is then passed to the downstream transformation.
On the
Incoming Fields
tab of the downstream transformation, you get the lineage for field Y. Because fields Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 are mapped to occurrences of Y, they are included in the upstream lineage of Y.
