So far your model has merged data from two files, then grouped and sorted the records. You now have a stream that has the latest data about the TV package that each customer has.

We You now want to get a set of records for each channel that the customer has ordered. In this section you are going to add information about which channels are included for each package. This data is currently in a database table. PhixFlow can look-up this data. To make sure that PhixFlow finds all the channels, you will use an ouptut multiplier 

...

An output multiplier tells PhixFlow to process the same record multiple times, each time producing a new record. This is called "breaking-out" a record. In this case we want PhixFlow to keep processing the same customer record until it has found all the channels. This means our single input record for each customer becomes multiple output records, like this:

...

• which pipe it will use -  find_channels pipe.
• what data you want to add - the channels.

The stream also needs to know about the new column to create for the channel information.

1. In the model, double-click Latest Package All Channels to open its settings tab.
2. To create the output multiplier, expand the Multipliers and Filters section and set:
   • Output Multiplier: find_channels.CHANNEL

3. To create a new column for the channel data, expand the Attributes section. Click 

   Insert excerpt
   _add_object _add_object nopanel true

    to add a new attribute. PhixFlow opens a new attribute settings tab. Set:
   •  Name: Channel
   •  Expression: _outputMultiplier
4. Click 

   Insert excerpt
   _fini _fini nopanel true

    to save and close the settings tab.
5. In the model toolbar, click 

   Insert excerpt
   _save _save nopanel true

    to save your model.

...

1. You can run the model and view the stream data.
