Flat File Enhancements
The Fall 2016 release includes the following flat file enhancements:
File Lists
You can use a file list as a source for flat file connections. Use a file list to enable a task to read multiple source files for one source object in a mapping. A file list is a file that contains the names and directories of each source file you want to use in a mapping.
Flat File Field Metadata
You can edit field metadata such as type, precision, and scale for a parameterized flat file data source in a Mapping Configuration task.
Retrieve Source File Name
You can retrieve the source file name as it is processed in a mapping, making it available downstream.
