All Synatic flows contain a Log Record Error step at the end of each flow by default. This step is used for logging the records that are processed during a flow run. A tally is kept of records that are completed successfully, records that are in error, and records that were excluded or skipped due to filtering. Other dataset line items that represent headers and footers are also logged.

The step can also be configured to limit the number of records logged if you just want to create a brief snapshot of the records processed.
