  • 1.  Attribute change after transform

    Posted Mon May 14, 2018 11:38 AM

    Has anyone experienced this where after one transform, the attribute would change from Label to Numeric on its own? We are on 12.4.1 version. Could this be a bug?

     

    Before. Label is left aligned

     

    After: Somehow this same column has now become right aligned which is in Numeric format.

    Hi Wong,

    Is this column generated using some formula ?

    Also, Could you create another Label column that takes in the value of this column ( New Column ={PlanIT_Resource_Type}) and check if this new label column has this issue ?

    Hi Varghese,

     

    No. this column was a source column from raw a table that was transformed a couple of time. But it is a good suggestion you have. I will give that a try.

    Sure Tony. Do let me know how it goes. Also, when you talk about the table being transformed, are you saying that this table is "Derived Off another Existing table" ?

    This table was derived off another existing table. I did what you suggested and it becomes "Label" attribute. So the issue has disappeared.

    Nice to know that. Although I'm still trying to figure out why a column would change type from "Label" to "Numeric" on it's own.
