Enricher looking at GI table and not seeing null values

Sam BRENNAN

started a topic about 2 years ago

I want to create an enricher to default the date when null on an Always Authored in MDM Column on and ID Matched entity

Entity: SourceUsers

ID Matched

Initial data is populated by an integration of all SourceUsers and thatsuccessfully loads into the SD/GD table

Another Always Authored in MDM field I would like to default the date for

Field Name: SourceCreateDate
Expected: Default to Current Date

Enricher:

Filter: SourceCreateDate is null
Expression:

Expected Results:

1. Edit record and do not update the SourceCreateDate field

2. SourceCreateDate is populated with Current Date when null

3. Records save and date is in GD table.

Actual Results:

1. Edit record and do not update the SourceCreateDate field

2. SourceCreateDate is not populated

3. Enricher investigation shows that its looking at a GI table vs a SA or other table. The net result is that enricher does not work?

Thank you for your help!

Hello Sam,

If you are looking into the SA table, then I'm guessing that it is either a basic entity or a fuzzy one but for which you are processing golden via authoring.

If so, in both cases, there is no consolidation, so setting the enricher as post-consolidation will lead to the enricher not being triggered.

I would advise you to put it as pre-consolidation instead.
