The fields to cut

Use The fields to cut table to specify what fields to cut and where to cut them.
The table contains the following columns:
In stream field
Name of the field containing the string to cut. Use Get fields to populate the table with fields from the incoming PDI data stream.
Out stream field
(Optional) A new outgoing PDI field containing the resulting substring. If you do not specify a value for this field, the In stream field is replaced by the resulting substring.
Cut from
The character location at the starting point of the substring. This value is zero-based. The first character of the entire input string has an index of 0
.
Cut to
The character location after the ending point of the substring, such that the substring cuts up to but not including the value entered. The value is zero-based but is exclusive. For example, setting Cut to to a value of 1
returns the first character in In stream field.
The maximum length of the resulting string is Cut to minus Cut from.
