You can step a component multiple times during a simulation, to preview the behavior of a component with different property settings. Repetitive steps does not increase the number of records delivered to the downstream component.
Stepping through components multiple times
In the Design window, click the component.
In the Properties window, modify the transformation rules or property settings.
Right-click the component and select Initialize.
Right-click the component and select Step.
Return to step 2.
When stepping the component repetitively, the same set of records at the IN-port are reprocessed in each step and forwarded to the output port without increasing the number of the record set at the OUT-port. For many components, the stepping can be done from inside the component window or by using the menu that appears when you right-click in the Sybase ETL Development window.
