Answer / subhash

The Simple way is:
SRCFile---->PIVOT Stage---->TGT
1. in PIVOT stage, select vertical PIVOT option.
2. specify the 'Array Size' as 2
3. select the 'Group by' check box for 'empname'
4. select the 'Pivot' check box for 'company'
then u will get the desired output.

Answer / venkatesh

The flow will be like this

src----->sorter---->transformer----->remove duplicates---->trg
SORTER
in sorter sort by the key=empname and create keychange column

TRANSFORMER
create two stage variables stg1 and stg2
if key change=1 then company else stg2 :',': company |stg1
_____________________________________________________|_____
|
stg1 |stg2

connect the stg1 as out put column and empname as output

from transformer connect to the remove duplicates
REMOVE DUPLICATES
key=empname
duplicates to retain=last
connect to the trg

u will get the output

Answer / cgi

Take sequential file and use sort stage and set keychange
column=true,put filter to output the data to two links, one
is kechange is 0 and other is for 1. first link is directly
goes to join stage and other stage should go to copy
stage.In the copy stage change the company column name to
company2 and populate to join. in the join stage provide
the key column to 'name' and do inner join. u will get
output as required.

Answer / tina

Use a lookup stage after the file. Do a self-lookup on this
file on empname. When the empname matches, take the empname
and company1 from stream link and company2 from reference
link and map to the target.

Answer / vinod upputuri

Venkatesh is Absolutely right but unfinished. After remove
duplicate stage we have to use either column import stage or
transformer stage.

SEQ>>>TRANS>>>REMOVEDUPLICATE>>>COLUMNIMPORT/TRANSFORMER>>>TARGET

if Transformer: use field function in derivation

for company1: field(company,',',1)
company2: filed(company,',',2)

for column import stage: specify the key column: company
default delimeter: ','
columns: company1 and company2
