Before You Begin

Before You Begin

To use the Import Mapping Template Wizard, verify the following prerequisites:
  • Source and target definition exist in the repository.
    The Import Mapping Template Wizard uses an XML version of the source and target to create mappings from the mapping template. If the Import Mapping Template Wizard cannot access the source and target definitions, it does not create the mappings.
  • Source definition database name matches in mapping object properties and in the active repository folder.
    The Import Mapping Template Wizard cannot create the mapping if the database name in the mapping source definition properties and the active repository folder are different.
  • Shortcut destination exists in a shared folder.
    If you import a mapping template that includes a shortcut to a source or target definition, the destination source or target must exist in a shared folder.
  • Target definition is linked to at least one transformation.
    The Import Mapping Template Wizard does not generate a mapping if the mapping template does not have at least one transformation linked to a target definition.
  • Mapplet or shortcut exists in the active repository folder.
    If you import a mapping template that includes a mapplet or a shortcut, the mapplet or shortcut must exist in the active folder.
