五月份的Excel输出显示上个月

Question

I´m working with PDI 4.1. I´ve created transformations and jobs, and I have an excel file with data from database. The columns in my excel file are name , date and hour , and I need to bring the data from last month. Can I do something like this?

Name_july_hour.xls==name_june_hour.xls

Thanks in advance.

You've likely figured this out by now, but what you need to do is flow the data from last month's Excel file into a transform with a Microsoft Excel Input step. Then you can do what ever you want with it (aggregate it, join it with another file, join it with a database table, ... whatever) before writing it to the new month's file with the Excel Writer Step.
