Hi,

Try to find frequency of your EMP_ID (97) if it is giving 2 then load distinct data it will work...

Hi All,

Thank you for valuable replies. I tried using Distinct keyword in different Scenario's but no use. I have tried at PERSON_ID and EMPLOYEE_ID and EMPLOYEE_NAME.

Employee name is still getting duplicates.If you observe that in the app or above attached image. There is name difference in the both. Please find the attached app.

Hi,

restrict it with below clause if only single name giving trouble,

FROM

(qvd) where [Employee Full Name]<>'Ray, Ms. Amy (Amy)';

You have not explained what you want to do with the duplicates. You could take the first instance of the ID and ignore subsequent duplicates, you could use a date field (if one exists) to choose the most recent, you could ignore the ID and just take the names, you could exception report the duplicates on an integrity report, etc.

So what do you want to do?

Hi

Use DISTINCT keyword or first sorted value

Thanks

There is multiple employees name for single Employee ID which is not possible. Check your mapping.
