What is an Expression Transform?
Answer:
Expression is a Passive connected transformation used to calculate values in a single row before you write to the target. We can use the Expression transformation to perform any non-aggregate calculations. We can al-so use the Expression transformation to test conditional statements before you output the results to target tables or other transformations.
For example, we might need to adjust employee salaries, concatenate first and last names, or convert strings to numbers.
