Maintaining columns properties in DataStage®

About this task

Use the Columns section of the Output tab to:

  • Inspect the definitions of output values.
  • Load another table definition. This task is an advanced task.

The Columns section can also include values that are passed from the input link.

Procedure

  1. Open the Columns section.

    The output parameters that are supplied by the web service WSDL or the specified column from the linked stage appear in rows.

    The Description property contains an XPath expression only when the output message is parsed and mapped.

  2. Modify the information, as needed. For example, you can add columns whose values pass from the input link to the output link.
