Problem Note 38187: An incorrect count is returned when you use an outer (left) join
When you use an outer (left) join in the Map node, an
incorrect count is returned because null entries are counted.
If you create a Multi-select node and then map to another subject, if the join is not the default inner join, then null entries are incorrectly counted in the results.
