Main purpose of staging layer in any ETL is to avoid source dependency. Bring the data from the source and keep it in staging tables and then perform necessary data cleansing operations to satisfy business needs. The structure of the staging table idealy same as your source tables, but denormalized in nature according to your data model.

product  customer invstmt


Table 2 


product  customer volume


Staging Table


product  customer invstmt volume


This the typical example I gave you, decide structure according to your data model the outcome you are expecting out of the package.
