error while using sort by key lexicographically

[Former Member]

Hi,

while sorting records lexicographically using sort by key function, i got the below error.

RuntimeException in Message-Mapping transformation: Runtime exception during processing target field mapping /ns0:MT_WorkOrderData/MessagePayload/Record/CAUFVD_KTEXT. The message is: Exception:[java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cannot parse apple to BigDecimal. ] in class com.sap.aii.mappingtool.flib3.NodeFunctions method sortByKey[com.sap.aii.mappingtool.flib3.Plainer@264b264b, com.sap.aii.mappingtool.flib3.Plainer@42674267]

i need to sort the input records from a file based on a field which is of type string.

Thanks in advance,

Jhansi.
