Environmental Variables Are Not Applied During Refresh

Issue

I've added tables to a channel, defined environmental variables that affect specific columns, and activated the channel. However, when I perform Refresh, the environmental actions aren't applied to the target tables.

Environment

DSS 6

Resolution

To ensure environmental variables are applied correctly:

  1. Define the environment variables on all tables.
  2. Remove and re-add the tables that rely on those variables.
  3. Perform Refresh or activate the channel with jobs to build the Capture and Integrate jobs.

Cause

This issue occurs when you add tables to a channel and activate it with the Table Enrollment component selected before configuring the required environment variables.
