If a report that has already been configured into a transformation flow, gets changes made to it directly, then the report step will need to be manually configured again. To do this, simply click on the report input step, and when the transformation flow panel gets updated with the step’s configuration details, click Apply.

Editing a configured report

When a user tries to edit a report that is being used in a transformation flow, they will see the following warning:

Once the report has been edited, the transformation flow will show an error on this step, indicating that changes has been made to the report that haven't been configured yet. For example:

Cases that require manual configuration

• When a new field is added to the report.

• When a field is removed from the report.

• The datatype of a field gets changed. (From example, from Text to Numeric.)

• If the report has user-prompted filters, and they are selected while configuring the step, but then these filters are changed or removed from the report. (However if the filters aren’t selected during configuration, then the step will continue to work without breaking.)

Note: If a configured report gets converted to a multi dimensional or section report, then the input step will fail to work. This cannot be fixed by using the Apply button, since such reports are not supported in the Data Transformation module.
