FDM option IGNOREMISSINGTABLECOLUMN=Y

Products

• CA Test Data Manager (Data Finder / Grid Tools)

Issue/Introduction

We are using the version 4.10.548.0 of the tool and in the parameters list we are setting

IGNOREMISSINGTABLECOLUMN=Y

This parameter is used to skip errors due to mask table columns that doesn't exist.

The tool is working correctly, but in the log we have this warning message "option IGNOREMISSINGTABLECOLUMN=Y not recognised and will be ignored" even if the tool manages the parameter correctly.
