Hi Group,

I am using a JOB to fire off multiple transformations as well as a single Shell step.

I have turned on logging (and batch-id) in in the job settings as well as in each of the transformation steps. I setup a job log table as well as a transformation log table, both have the requisite BATCH-ID fields.

When I run the job, I get an entry into the job log table and multiple entries into the transformation log table (one for each transformation process).

What I don't get, is any common "batch id" (or any ID) in either file (job log or transformation log) that links anything together. No Job ID that links multiple Transformation ID'S to each other. No Transformation ID'S that group the Transformations together.

I would assume that a "batch-id" would start at the JOB level and be passed into each of the transformation logs linking them all together.

Isn't this what Batch-ID was meant for? and if so, what am I doing wrong?

Can anyone help How i can achieved this?

Regards

Sumit

Enable channel logging and it all links together.

It's a logging table just like all other logging tables, available for jobs and transformations but only the top level job or transformation logs anything.

Thanks Matt and Dan for your suitable response.

As per my understanding instead of logging table i need to enable logging channel table in the job setting as well as in each of the transformation steps? and in get system info instead of transformation batch id i need to select parent job batch id?

Please correct me if i m wrong ..then i hope it should work...

It's pretty obvious if you look at it that the log channel ID's link the various tables.
Since the logging channel table contains the complete execution lineage you have everything you need.

Good luck and please try to look a bit yourself.  This is not a self help group :-)
