Logging around setting "when transfer fails".

We started to use the configuration continue without data in case a transfer fails. The feature works fine, and we also see the message that one or more datasources fail. My question is, how can we easily see which datasources failed, and with what error message?

Use IS NOT NULL as a join condition on lookup

Is there a way to use IS NOT NULL as one of the join conditions on a lookup? I want to get the TOP (1) record where a field is not null, ordered by date. Currently I have to edit the _Clean stored procedure as custom code to add it, which is obviously not the best way to do things. Thanks

Setting a flag when execution is done

Hi, We use TX as a part of our value chain of systems using data. We need to programatically be able to check if the execution is done, so the following jobs can start.I know TX can send an email when completed, but we really do not want to build the check on emails. Does anyone have a good idea on how to do this? Hope you can help. Best regards Michael Vaisgaard

Two datasources into one table

Hello,So I am loading historical data into tables in TX created of Excel files. One file for property data, one file for casualty data. After some time the file format changes and they combine these two separate files into one file and add new fields.Can I create a new data source to load the new file but still use the original worksheet tab names such that the data will still load into the existing tables?Thanks in advance.P.S. I am using Discovery Hub 17.12.13.64

Notification Execution Packages - Send mails using Google Mail

Hello, Which settings are needed in order to get Google Mail send success and failure emails in TimeXtender?  I tried it with  Servername: smtp.gmail.com Port: 25/465/587 Enable SSL/TLS: Checked Allow invalid certificates: Checked From Email: my.name@gmail.com User name: my.name@gmail.com Password: <my gmail password> To Email: another.email@gmail.com   I get different failure responses:  25: 5.7.0 Authentification required 465: Syntax error, command not recognized 587: 5.7.0 Authentification required   Without SSL/TLS I get: A secure connection is required for the smtp server or the client is not authentificated. Server response was: 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first.   The responses are translated from german to english so please don't take them literally.   What are the corrected settings here? Is it something in my google account?

Cdata adapter - CSV File 10(GB)

We are trying to get a csv file of 10 gb into TimeXtender but it takes very long for TimeXtender to get this loaded and sometimes we are getting an error (system out of memory). Is there a solution or something else we can try to get big csv files into TimeXtener or can we change the CSV file to get it loaded into TimeXtender? We are now using the Cdata adapter and already used the multiple/single file adapter.   Thanks for the response!

Full load doesn't update the _I table?

Hi!Can you clearify that if I run a full load ( on a source based incremental table), it doesn't update the _I table with the current max value? In our scenario, I run a full load very early in the morning and then run incremental loads during the day. But I have seen that the first incremental load of the day takes a very long time to run which I suspect is due to there being a lot of changes since the last incremental load, i.e. the full load's transfer is ignored by the incremental load?So the first incremental load, more or less, transfers the same data that the full load did?Version 19.11.7.64RegardsNiclas

_L and _M Table Behavior

I am using the Field Validation to test our ETL. Using this as source data:And these rules in the DSA:And this query to check for errors:I get the following result:The _L table is linking to the records in the _R table that were removed when they failed the validation step on FIRST_NAME. Also the Warning level notification is not present in the table.As it stands the _L, _R, and _M tables as joined above are showing incorrect or at least confusing information. Am I using them as they were intended to be used, and has anyone done anything to get around this?Thanks,Mark

Transfer Task error ODX server

Currently, we are rendering an error when we want to do a Transfer task for with the ODX server. We are trying to read an PxPlus data source via an ODBC driver, TimeXtender correctly shows all available tables and columns, and synchronizing also seems to work fine. However, when we try to transfer the data the following error is returned:The source does allow any schema's, and it seems that TimeXtender nevertheless tries to envoke a query with a schema (I think the error is returned because of the []. before the tablename). We have tried some things in the Query formatting and Character Replacement, but we can't get it to work properly. TimeXtender version: 20.10.1.64ODX Server version 20.10.1

Data export in batch size

Currently we are facing a problem with memory resources when we're trying to do a data export. When writing a huge file, 4 gb, the memory allocated to this TX process takes up more resources than  we would like (> 22gb of RAM). Is there any possibility for breaking up the data export in partions, such that the process takes up less RAM? I would think there would be some kind of option like the data batch cleansing in the table settings, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.   Within the data export we use the TimeXtender File Export 2.0.0.0 provider.
