RE: External procedure transformation and Custom transformation
|
| Both transformations operate in conjunction with procedure your create outside of the Desinger interface to extend PowerCenter functionality. However, for external procedure transformation, you need to use the Transformation Exchange (TX) dynamic invocation interface built into PowerCenter. Using TX, you can create an Informatica External Procedure transformation and build it to an external procedure that you have developed. For custom transformation, you need to develop a procedure which uses the functions described in "Custom Transformation functions". |
