The source EMP does not have deptname. Target DB required deptname.
Lookup DB in this case is our Source DB which has DEPT table (SCOTT schema)

Note: To increase the performance all other ports are projected directly from SQ to the TGT.

e.g. EMPNAME,SAL etc.

3000 NE 2000 (NE means not equal to)

Here, the lookup is TGT. The sal changed from 2000 to 3000. This change needs to be projected to
the TGT.
Relate the Source and Target tables first.
The values are compared.
The changes are then projected to the TGT. Change of information affects dimensions.
Lookup uses Data Cache and Index Cache.
It also uses its own cache.
Default LOOKUP CACHE is STATIC CACHE (Does not change any value brings the value and relates)
Just relates the data and pass the data.

Lookup SQL Override.

Lookup Table name.
Lookup Caching enabled. If we cache the values, we can save the values for Persistent Cache and
we can use Dynamic. By default, it is checked.
Lookup policy on multiple match. By default, First value is matched because we are just passing
the data.
1 x 1000 (First time projected)
1 x 2000 (Second time projected)
1 x 1000 > same as the first time projection, here first value match does not work (as it is same as
the first time projected data), so we use last value match.
In static definition, USE FIRST VALUE.
Lookup Condition is disabled.
Connection Information $source or $target.
Source Type (database or flat file)
Tracing level.
Lookup Cache Directory name
Re cache from lookup source.
Flat file Properties:
Thousand Separator.
Decimal Separator.

Project the required ports from Lookup to the target and SQ to TGT.
