where we use column generator stage in real time scenario?..

Answer / ram

The Column Generator stage adds columns to incoming data
and generates mock data for these columns for each data row
processed. The new data set is then output..

Let us two table x and Y ..and you are doing funnel..
X file is having only 2 columns and Y file is having 3
columns..
While doing funnel metadata should be same. in order to
achieve this include one column to X file and next use this
column generator stage, this stage populates some mock data
in third column..
