Receiver based date transformation

Question

Hi,
We have a scenario where we need to map the date to the  receiving databases. We have the same map going to oracle receiver and a mySQL receiver. The date formats of both the databases are different. How can this be handled within the same map ( like receiver based date transformation) or does it need to go throught the traditional route of different maps for different JDBC receivers? Any help is appreciated..

Teresa,
Yes, I have the same payload going across to both DB at the same time. THe payload to mySQL is failing because the date format is in oracle transformation. I was wondering whether this could be done without doing 2 different maps.
Yes, you can do it in the same mapping.
For two different receivers, you must be having two different Business Services? If yes, then get the values of receiver BS in your mapping and do a simple condition test. Apply the date transformation logic accordingly.
For getting the Receiver Service name, you can either use the "Receiver" under "Constant" standard function or use the following UDF -
String RcvService;
java.util.Map map;
map = container.getTransformationParameters();
RcvService = (String) map.get(StreamTransformationConstants.RECEIVER_SERVICE);
return RcvService;
You can change the above code as per your requirement.
Hope this helps.
