  • 1.  If else statement on column Map

    Posted 06/29/22 03:24 PM
    Hi All,

    is there any way we can do simple if else on column map? without using column map procedure or Lua script? 

    i have tried using column map procedure but it throws bit compatibility error.  - "XFMNID_ERR_PSTBASIC_UNSUPPORTED(12067) ODPP NID: PST BASIC is not supported for
    WIN 64"

    Rajesh,

    Are you entering the column map procedure in Designer?  If not, that is probably the error.  The Classic version of Optim isn't set up to accept Lua.

    Let me know if that helps.

    Yes jimmy, i am aware that column map procedure can't be run in classic. 

    i am trying to find option to run if else conditions in column map using expand source column option. 

    Also, is there an option to trim extra spaces for the column values in Optim classic?

    Rajesh,

    You can execute the column map procedure in Classic.  You just cannot design it in Classic.  The primary way is to create the Lua scripts in the Designer product.  Those can be assigned to the column maps in Classic or Designer.  They can then be executed in either UI or the command line.

    There is no trim function in Optim.  A column map Lua procedure could be used to perform the trim function.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi Rajesh,  

    Using PST Basic for a column map procedure no longer functions with Optim on 64 bit systems.  That is why you get the error.  If you want to write a column map procedure it will have to be in LUA and you can not write LUA using the Optim Classic column map procedure editor. As Jimmy pointed out, that needs to be done in Optim Designer.

    There are no column map functions you can use in the source column (expanded or otherwise) for a general if/else operation nor is there a straight up trim operation.  If you are looking to trim the data prior to transforming it, then you could use TRANS COL or pro=aff and set a space as one of the trim values, but that would trim all spaces and then perform a transformation of the data.

    Regards,

    Tammy
