Hi There is no major difference between three stages in terms of Functionality. They

mainly in the memory they use, the treatment of

rows with unmatched keys, and their requirements for data being input. Look Up, Join stages have only one Reject link, but Merge state can have two or more reject links for each reference link.

Thanks
LakshmiKrishna

Lookup stage:
1.Can only return multiple matching rows from one reference.
2. Can reject rows based on constraint.
3. Can set failure.
4. Does not need partitioned and sorted input.


Merge stage:
1. Can reject rows if fail to find match.
2. Does need partitioned and sorted input.


Join stage.
1. No reject.
2. Does need partitioned and sorted input.
