Options

Meta tab: on this tab you can specify the field metadata (output specification) of the data
Data tab: This grid contains the data. Everything is entered in String format so make sure you use the correct format masks in the metadata tab.

Metadata Injection Support

All fields of this step support metadata injection. You can use this step with ETL Metadata Injection to pass metadata to your transformation at runtime.

Limitations

It is not yet possible to insert columns in between 2 existing one or in general re-order the fields in the metadata tab.

If you plan to do this, make sure to copy the data section first to a spreadsheet (Select all rows and copy/paste the whole grid), change the data and copy it back into the data section.
