Creating a flat file target at run time

Creating a flat file target at run time

To create a flat file target at run time, select
Create New at Runtime
 in the
Target Object
 dialog box. Then configure a static or dynamic file name for the target file.
  1. On the
    Target
     tab of the Target transformation, select a flat file connection.
  2. Set the target type to
    Single Object
    .
  3. Click
    Select
     to select the target object.
  4. In the
    Target Object
     dialog box, select
    Create New at Runtime
    .
  5. Configure the target file name:
    • To enter a static file name without a time stamp, enter the file name in the
      Static File Name
       field.
    • To enter a static file name that contains a time stamp, enable
      Handle Special Characters
       and enter the file name, including the time stamp characters, in the
      Static File Name
       field.
    • To enter a dynamic file name, enable
      Use a Dynamic File Name
       and configure the expression to create the file name.
      You can use fields, system variables, parameters, built-in functions, and user-defined functions in the file name expression.
  6. Optionally, if you're using a fixed-width flat file format that uses the Decimal or Double data type, and you don't want
    Data Integration
     to round the data, select
    Skip rounding decimal and double data types
    .
  7. Click
    OK
    .
