Hi Thanks for your great interest. In DB2/UDBEnterprise stage as of my knowledge both the truncate and delete option send the commond as Delete, if so how does Truncate option will be more faster than the delete option. How does it internally works on. Can you put some more light on the same. Thanks

Data set can be partioned as of the required number of nodes and thus it can be run in parallel. You can defines as many number of nodes as you can.

But incase of sequential file, it extracts and writes through sequential.

You can use the stage variables effectively in this. Counter logic can be incorparated in stage variables and this can be used as a constraint which might give you a better solution.

In aggregator stage the default output data type is dfloat, you can convert the datatype to decimal by adding the "Available sub prodperity to add" has the "Decimal Output" option

Just check with that one, which will solve your first query as i suppose
