Hi All,

I am in the process of designing a load system to satisfy our business needs.

In our shop we use Fastloads, Multi-loads(source is one file and target is one table), BTEQ's, etc.

For example:

I have the following 2 files:

1) Credit file - Contains APPL-ID as the key.
2) Product file - Contains multiple products for the same Application - APPL_ID.

Can I use the 'Where' clause to Qualify my INSERT statements having the above 2 files in my the Multi-loads using 2 source layout? If this is possible, then it takes care of R.I.

The alternative is to load all records into temporary tables - these temporary tables have no keys (as opposed to Volatile tables) and then use BTEQ - give SQL commands - our DBA's want us to avoid usage of Temporary tables (big issue with disk space!!!).

All help will be greatly appreciated.

Paul
