Creating and Configuring an Associated Source Qualifier
Creating and Configuring an Associated Source Qualifier
You create an associated source qualifier in a mapping depending on the WebSphere MQ message data format. You can create the following types of associated source qualifier transformations for WebSphere MQ message data:
Source Qualifier transformation for flat file message data
Normalizer transformation for COBOL message data
Before you create an associated source qualifier, import the source definition that describes the message data you want to read from the WebSphere MQ message queue.
By default, the Designer creates an associated source qualifier when you add an associated source definition to a mapping. If you configure the Designer to create a source definition without a Source Qualifier, you can create the associated source qualifier manually.
To configure an associated source qualifier:
Double-click the MQ Source Qualifier.
Click the Associated Source Qualifier tab and select Use Associated Source Qualifier.
From the list of associated source qualifiers, select the associated source qualifier you want to use. Click OK.
The Designer creates a MsgId port in the associated source qualifier, and links the MsgId ports on the MQ Source Qualifier and the associated source qualifier.
