I have some data that needs to go through a lookup transformation. Currently I have the data flow set up to redirect from the lookup if there are no matches. The error redirect goes to a log table that is used to tell what columns didn't match in the lookup and what the client needs to correct on the record. However, the columns that are going through the lookup are NOT required...meaning I don't really want to redirect the row and not continue the record in the data flow. I need to be able to redirect the rows and log, but at the same time continue that record through the data flow (this columns would just be NULL). Any suggestions on how to do this?
That helps me with redirecting the error row back to the data flow, but then how do i handle rows that don't error? I have no where to connect them in the dataflow because the error row is already in that path.
ok..for that what you could do is add a union all transform to merge the error row path and actual lookup path so that you get all records merged again in the main path
