how to load multiple files in fastload - response (15) by anubha_harrison

There are multiple ways to create a TPT Script.

i) Manually write the Scripts following the documents or Sample Scripts
ii) Teradata Parallel Transporter Wizard to create scripts dynamically that supports wide variety of scenarios based on
      a) Source System (File, Tables etc)
      b) Load Operator, Update Operator or Stream Operator
      c) To pass values as parameters or to embed directly in the script for UserID, Password etc.
iii) Using ETL tools such as Informatica that internally creates equivalent TPT Script based on the developed mappings and the connections being used.
 
A Sample TPT Script will appear like below that extracts data from SQL Server table(SrcDB.Table1 )and makes use of load operator to load data into Teradata table (TgtDB.Table1).
