Previewing PowerExchange Data in Designer

You can preview data in the Designer for any valid relational and nonrelational source or target definitions. You can also preview change data for extraction map source definitions. You cannot preview data for multi-record data map source definitions.

Previewing data allows you to see the source or target data. The data that is shown depends upon the database type of the source or target definition. There are three database types for PowerExchange source and target definitions:

Relational, such as DB2 for DB2 metadata.

Nonrelational, such as PWX_VSAM_NRDB2 for VSAM data maps.

Extraction Maps, such as PWX_DB2390_CDC for DB2 CDC data maps.

You can preview source or target data in the following Designer tools:

Source Analyzer.
Preview source data in the Source Analyzer after you import the source.

Target Designer.
Preview target data in the Target Designer after you import a target.

Mapplet Designer.
Preview source data in the Mapplet Designer while creating a mapplet.

Mapping Designer.
Preview source and target data in the Mapping Designer while creating a mapping.
