Transform Model Step Columns

There is a maximum number of columns you can use in your table with a model step. If you exceed this limit, TBM Studio takes longer to calculate results, and also does not calculate the model object. This results in incorrect numbers on any models that use this object.

  4. Add the step from + icon shown in the configuration of the step
  5. Select Hide and Rename from the configuration of the step, and then select Add Columns
  6. Select the columns to hide to get under the limit.
