Change Target

Use the Change Target window to change the warehouse target for your step without removing the target link from the process model and adding a new link. You can change the warehouse target of any step in development or test mode that has a target table. You can make the following types of changes to the warehouse target:

If a target table being removed is used in the SQL for the step, the Data Warehouse Center displays a warning message that the target table will be removed from the SQL.

When you change a target table, the definition of the step is modified to reflect the use of the new warehouse target and tables. Any SQL generation statements that specified the old target are deleted. To view these changes, open the SQL Step notebook.

To change the warehouse target, you must belong to a group that has access to the warehouse target.
