Allocate Input tool to be updated with the quarterly files

Hi, 

 

I am pulling the data from the previous quarter (Q3) into the workflow.

I updated the Calgary input tool with the old quarterly data (Q3) file- F:\2021_Q2_ConsumerView\Experian_CV_Analytical_File_Q2_2021\Household\ConsumerView.cydb

I want to ask for the Allocate Input tool - Do we update the dataset here as well (with the Q3 Experian data file) or keep it always "Experian US - Most Recent Vintage" ?

Can you please help on this?

 

Thanks

"Most Recent Vintage" should work for what you want unless you want to lock in a specific dataset:
