Answer / kiran
Reject link is a reject link in both merge and lookup
stage. I guess the interviewer is not sure about this
question. The difference between lookup and mergre stages
in terms of reject links is lookup allows single reject
while merge allows as many reject links as the update links
in the source. so Lookup---> single reject link, Merger--->
Multiple reject links.

Answer / dilip anand k
Look up has one Primary input and several reference inputs
and it supports an optional reject link that captures the
unmatched data looked up in the primary. (Rejected data in
the primary input and not the referential links)
Merge stage has one Master input and several update
datasets and it has a reject link for each update link
specified. So if we have ‘n’ no of update datasets then the
stage supports ‘n’ no. of reject links to capture the
unmatched records of the update link.

Answer / sravanthi agarwal w/o.sai sat
In Lookup stage we can capture the primary reject data
(input link to the lookup) and its only 1 link..
In case of Merge stage we can capture secondary rejected
data(depends on update links to the merge stage) and its
depends on update link count.....

Answer / vijaya
Hi
The lookup stage contain one primary link and another
ref.link the reject link will have unmatched records of
primary link.where as in merge stage contain one master link
all update links the reject link will have unmatched records
of update link.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 3 Yes | 0 No |
Well
The prime difference is
lookup reject link can collect all unmatched primary mismatched data.
Where as
in merge stage, using reject link(s) it will allow us to identify from which update datasets records got rejected.
n in addition to this as we know
lookup supports only one reject link and merge supports as many no. of updates so many no. of reject links.
thats it.
