Ok, I have been trying to work through this and the answer is probably staring me in the face but I just can't see it. I am using WTX v8.4 (specifically 8.4.0.2, build 12), and I have a data element that has an item subclass of Text in the type tree, but my users require me to validate that the...
I have a query in my mdq that I run in a map rule, generating a text file as output. What I am tying to do next is in a subsequent map, read in that text file and send the contents as the body of an email. It seems no matter what I do, I can't get it to work. I can successfully generate an email...
One of our systems analysts just informed me that WebSphere Transformation Extender was being rebranded (yet again) as InfoSphere DataStage. Is there any truth to this, or is it just another case of naming confusion?
Saving Type Tree. Please wait..." Ok, it should say, please wait indefinitely. Sometimes it saves quickly, but most times when I hit save, Type Designer freezes and I have to end the program. It does usually save the tree, however. When I went to a class (however long ago that was, I don't...
In a type tree, I have a type where the Class properties is set to Group. In the Type Syntax properties, Terminator is set to Variable. When I try to set the default, Type Designer abruptly closes. I've tried clicking on the ellipses and choosing a default value, and I've tried typing the...
We are attempting to migrate all of our 6.7 processing to 8.1 and I've been having a lot of headaches. One new thing just surfaced this morning. We have a map that translates an Ansi X12 transaction to a flat file. One particular field is set in the type tree to pad with <SP> to a fixed length...
We recently converted our test environment from Ascential DataStage TX 8.0 to IBM WebSphere Transformation Extender 8.1. No problems. This weekend, we started the conversion of our production environment. The OS levels are identical. The hardware is practically the same. The version and build of...
Is anyone using WTX to process ASC 148 Subsequent Report of Injury? I am having some difficulty with what should be (in my mind) a simple transformation, and if there is someone familiar with the ASC X12 148 (Subsequent Report), I'd like to see if I can find a reasonable solution.
With the rebranding of Ascential Datastage TX to IBM Websphere Transformation Extender, it certainly appears to me that there is some future plan for the tool. Adding the Websphere name to the product, has anyone heard of any specific plans for the product to be integrated with the Websphere...
We are starting to move from Ascential DataStage TX 8.0 to IBM Websphere Transformation Extender 8.1. I just wanted to ask if anyone is aware of any pitfalls to watch out for or particular issues to be aware of? I'm still relatively "new" to the tool (still have not been to any formal training)...
I've been banging my head against any number of walls trying to accomplish what I imagine to be a very simple task. One field in particular that we get inbound from our trading partners can be from 1 to 10 digits. However, anything less than 7 is a problem for our database, so what we want to do...
