Description

Use the INSERTMISSINGUPDATES and NOINSERTMISSINGUPDATES parameters to control whether or not Oracle GoldenGate inserts a record based on the source record when the target record does not exist.

INSERTMISSINGUPDATES inserts the missing update but should only be used when the source database logs all column values, whether or not they changed). It can work with a database that uses a compressed form of updates (where only the changed values are logged) if the target database allows NULL to be used for the missing column values.

When the default of NOINSERTMISSINGUPDATES is in effect, a missing record causes an error, and the transaction may abend depending on REPERROR settings.

The INSERTMISSINGUPDATES and NOINSERTMISSINGUPDATES parameters are table-specific. One parameter remains in effect for all subsequent MAP statements, until the other parameter is encountered.
