Post Load Changes

Post Load Changes (PLC) refers to a rule describing the conversion of data from sources to Staging or from Staging to Processing (destination) tables. During the data extraction, a Post Load Changes rule helps in structuring the required data from sources to the target or an intermediate systems for further processing. Based on the selected mode, Post Load Changes can be applied to execute the process successfully.

Post Load Changes within the Data Management Tools framework allows you to define transformations to the source data before extracting/loading it to the target database to populate the data warehouse.

The User Roles mapped to the Post Load Changes module are as follows:
