  • 1.  Table Usages

    Posted 11/30/15 11:50 AM

    Good Morning,

     

    I have a question about the table usages tab under the table preview pane.  The Columns column list the columns being used.  The Used by column shows the data sets using the column.  The Details columns shows how the column is being used.  I feel I have a good understanding of this.  However, when the Columns column is blank/null we see data sets listed in the Used by with a Detail of Other.

     

    To me this means that the whole data set is used indirectly by another data set.  For example, a transform of a transform would show up here because the original transform has look up using a column in the data set.

     

    Just wanted to confirm I am understanding this correctly.

     

    Thanks,

     

    Jeff

    You're right: If the Columns column is blank, it's most likely an indication that this entire data table is either being directly transformed or that one of its transforms is being transformed yet again (i.e. a transform of a transform).
