Can we create the targets at run time using informatica Powercenter

When we do not know the number of targets, Can we create the targets at run time using informatica Powercenter.

Suppose we have below source:
Employee:

Dept_ID      EmpName  Sal
10           A        200
11           B        100
10           C        200
10           D        400
12           E        500
12           F        400

...

It can have any number of distinct Dept_ID. I want to load all EmpName and Sal of a particular Dept_ID into a separate target table (i.e target name should be as Tar_10 or Tar_11 where 10 & 11 are Dept_ID).

You can achieve this by the following method:
1.While creating the target check the include file name port checkbox.
2.Use an expression to create the file name port name, something like " 'Tar' || Dept_ID" should do.
3.Use a sorter to sort your input with respect to Dept_ID.
4.Use a transaction control transformation on the condition that when Dept_ID is different from previous Dept_ID use "TC_COMMIT_AFTER", this will keep changing the file name depending on your input.

Your Output will look like this : TAR_10

10 A 200

10 C 200

10 D 400

TAR_11

11 B 100

TAR_12

12 E 500

12 F 400
