What is and ACCOUNT NAME ???

[RobertRocks]

Can Someone Define what an Account Name is in Datastage and how and why I would use this? The reason I ask this question is because one of the options , in properties, of a hash file stage is "use account name" or "use directory path". Why would I chose one over the other?

this might help you:

If you choose this option, you must choose the name of the account from the Account name drop-down list box. This list box contains all the accounts defined under the Table Definitions > Hashed branch in the Repository. If the account you want is not listed, you need to define a table definition.
