Well, I added one more property in the sample stage and output seems to be going closer now:

I added property: Seed = 1 and now the Output Row Count is 13077 which is much closer to the expected count.

What is the significance of this property and how does that affect the output count?

Oops. Thanks for the reply.

Yes its from NVarchar(120) to Decimal 8
I am sure the source data will hold not more than 8 chars from the source based on one filtering criteria. How do we eliminate the warnings it throws any due to this.

Thanks

Thank you your hints helped me.

It looks like when we rename a table definition the value of Data Source Name and Data Source Type do not change.

It reflected the old one. I changed them and it works. Resolved!!!

Table Name is the column name on the Input and Output tables of the Interface tab on the buildop.

This column holds the path to the table definition of the input and output links.
