Example
Determine whether or not an employee’s type code (TYPE_CODE) is a valid integer number. If TYPE_CODE contains a valid integer number, map it to target field TYPE_CODE. Otherwise, map a constant of spaces (' ') to the target field.
IF ISINT (TYPE_CODE) = 1
{
TGT_DS.TYPE_CODE = TYPE_CODE)
}
ELSE
{
TGT_DS.TYPE_CODE' = ' ')
}
