identify duplicates? and where do load the duplicate
records for further reference?
2) How do we do chage data capture? Is this Slowly changing
Dimension technique?

Answer / ram
take a router transformation and pass the records through the router transformation and write the logic as if setvarcount()<=1 then send to one target and if setvarcount()>1 then rout them to second target then u can easily avoid duplicates and also u can verify them for future use. try this else correct me
