I have noticed in cases where we have duplicates in the source (after), the first record gets identified as a copy (assuming the data is available in the reference/before as well) and the second record gets identified as an insert. Not sur...

To my understanding a wrapper stage is one that passes data through to an external executable or script and reads the response from said program/script. As such your support team would still need to maintain that. Assuming I am correct in my assumption :wink: , you should be able to parse the data ...

Hey Hi Craig, Thank you so much for your response. The reason I have to change the Generate SQL option to 'No' is that (my intended requirement) all the fields except the Create Id and create date have to be updated whenever we encounter an update.

hi jweir,
I think Craig meant that the DSJS.RUNWARN definitely needs the job to succeed and have warnings to pass through.

If the job had aborted with warnings, there is no way for the trigger to get activated.

Can you please re-validate your trigger conditions ?
