Read and write to same yxdb file in the same workflow

Hi,

I am trying to read in a yxdb file and append records from other data sources and would like to store it in the same yxdb file for the next run

Using yxdb as it is the fastest, currently writing to a table in db, but would like to improve the performance of read-write...

Currently, i am getting an error that the file is being used by another process

 

Is there a way i can perform this? or is there are work-around for this?

Hi @sriram_murali try using a Block Until Done tool before your output tool as this will get all the data then push to your YXDB.
