Importing Workflows from PowerCenter

When you import a workflow from PowerCenter, the Start and Session task, which includes both reusable and non-reusable task, imports into the Model repository. In the Model repository, each workflow contains an End event after you import from PowerCenter.

Use the Developer tool or infacmd to import mappings from PowerCenter or export mappings to PowerCenter to reuse the metadata.

To import data from PowerCenter into the Model Repository, complete the following tasks:

Export PowerCenter objects to a file using the PowerCenter Client or with the following command:

pmrep ExportObject

Convert the export file to a Model repository file using the following command:

infacmd ipc importFromPC

Import the objects using the Developer tool or with the following command:

infacmd tools importObjects

Branches in the PowerCenter workflows gets routed through Inclusive gateways in the imported workflows in the Model repository. An Inclusive gateway requires at least one of its outgoing sequence flows to be set as default. The first outgoing sequence flow from the gateway becomes the default and the imported workflow remains valid.
