Allow Incomplete Records

When the Allow Incomplete Records field is not selected, Parse expects that the input data contains enough bytes for the complete copybook layout. When Multiple Records is selected then each record must satisfy this requirement.

When the Allow Incomplete Records field is selected, the following applies:

• If, while reading an item, Parse encounters a premature end of data, then the activity stops and returns the XML containing all items that were read fully. This is considered a normal end of the processing as opposed to an error condition when Allow Incomplete Records is not selected.
• Similarly, when Parse is reading an item with OCCURS clause, the premature end of data is considered normal even though a required number of occurrences was not read. When Allow Incomplete Records is not selected this results in an error.
  Warning: When an incomplete item is discarded, the Plug-in is unable to perform any data validity checks, meaning that a data corruption is less likely to be detected.
