Normalized Relational Input

Normalized Relational Input

When you normalize the relational input data in the hierarchical output, the data values do not repeat in the hierarchical group. You create a one-to-one relationship between the hierarchy levels in the hierarchal output data and the input groups of ports.

Normalized Relational Input Example

You want to transform relational input with a group that contains details of managers from several companies to separate XML hierarchies. In the input, each manager record contains company details. In the output, one XML hierarchy contains details for companies, and a separate XML hierarchy contains details for managers.
In the relational input, the Company_ID and Company_Name elements repeat for each manager in the company:
Company_ID
Company_Name
Manager_ID
Manager_Name

If you define the XML output to contain a Company parent hierarchy level and an Managers child hierarchy level, you might use the following hierarchy groups:
Companies
Company_Key Company_ID Company_Name
Managers
Company_Key Manager_ID Manager_Name
The Company_Key element relates the Managers hierarchy to the Companies hierarchy.
