Validating a Process Step
To validate a step, right-click the step and click Validate Step or click 
.
.The following table provides the validation details for each type of step.
Step Type | Validation |
Transformation | Verifies that a map is specified, but not whether the map is valid. |
Application | Checks whether a command line is available. |
Decision | • If there is a single line expression, checks to make sure it can evaluate to a number or a Boolean value. • If there is a multiple line expression, step validation is not available. If you choose Validate, it attempts to compile the expression. • If there is no expression, or it does not have the correct syntax for a true/false evaluation, then you receive an appropriate message and the validation fails. |
SQL | Verifies that a session is specified and either a SQL statement or a path to a file is available. |
Start and Stop | Validates the syntax of any expression in the step. |
Script | Verifies that there is an expression entered and that the syntax is correct. |
Process | Verifies a process name is entered and that the process is valid according to the conditions described in the next table. |
Aggregator, Iterator, Queue, Transformer, Invoker | Verifies that a component instance, action, and parameters are specified. |
