Creating a Local Shortcut in the Workspace

To create a local shortcut in the workspace:

In the Navigator, expand the shared folder containing the object you want to use and drill down to locate the object.

Open the destination folder, the folder in which you want the shortcut.

Select the appropriate Designer tool for the shortcut.

For example, to create a shortcut for a source, choose the Source Analyzer or Mapping Designer tool. To create a shortcut for a target, choose the Target Designer or Mapping Designer tool.

Drag the object from the shared folder into the workspace.

After you drop the object, the Designer displays the following message:

Create a shortcut to <object type> <object name>?

If the object is not saved in the repository, the Designer displays a message asking if you want to create a copy of the object. To create a shortcut, cancel the operation, save the object, and then create the shortcut.

When prompted for confirmation, click OK to create a shortcut, or click Cancel to cancel the operation.

The shortcut now appears in the workspace and in the Navigator.

Click Repository > Save.

You can now use the shortcut in this folder.
