Error description

  • SQL Server Enterprise Stage, Lookup Stage, Parallel Job: Sparse
    lookup returns a value of 0 for an integer field when there is
    no match, it should return a NULL.
    
    When doing a sparse lookup and setting the lookup to continue
    where there is no match, an integer field "easys_emp_surr " that
    is set to NULLABLE in the job is returned with a 0 value instead
    of NULL. The same job using a normal lookup returns a NULL
    value.
