Adding column in data load editor??

Hi All,

I have a column SCD_SHIP_DATE in data load editor. I want to add a column SCD_SHIP_DATE_DESC manually in such a way that ;

SCD_SHIP_DATE               SCD_SHIP_DATE_DESC

12/14/2016                            Today

Prior to 12/14/2016                LOD

12/15/2016                            Tomorrow

12/16/2016 to 12/30/2016      12/16/2016-12/30/2016

1/1/2017 to 1/30/2017            Jan Shipment

How can I do it?

Thanks

Juna

Maybe something like this in your script:

if(SCD_SHIP_DATE < '12/14/2016', 'LOD',

     IF(SCD_SHIP_DATE = '12/14/2016', 'Today',

          IF(SCD_SHIP_DATE = '12/15/2016', 'Tomorrow',

               IF(SCD_SHIP_DATE >= '12/16/2016' and SCD_SHIP_DATE <= '12/30/2016', SCD_SHIP_DATE,

                    IF(SCD_SHIP_DATE >= '1/1/2017' and SCD_SHIP_DATE <= 1/30/2017, 'Jan Shipment')

               )

           )

       )

) as SCD_SHIP_DATE_DESC
