Defining a mapping

To define a mapping, create or edit a mapping, specify the mapping name and location, and optionally enter a mapping description.
  1. Click
    New
    Mappings
    , and then perform one of the following tasks:
    • To create a mapping from scratch, click
      Mapping
      and then click
      Create
      . In the
      New Mapping
      dialog box, select the mapping type and then click
      Continue
      .
      If you create a mapping in SQL ELT mode, select the target connection or create a new target connection and then click
      Next
      .
    • To create a mapping based on a template, click the template you want to use and then click
      Create
      .
    • To edit a mapping, on the
      Explore
      page, navigate to the mapping. In the row that contains the mapping, click
      Actions
      and select
      Edit
      .
    The Mapping Designer opens.
  2. To specify the mapping name and location, in the
    Mapping Properties
    panel, enter a name for the mapping and change the location. Or, you can use the default values if desired.
    The default mapping name is
    Mapping
    followed by a sequential number.
    Mapping names can contain alphanumeric characters and underscores (_). Maximum length is 100 characters.
    The following reserved words cannot be used:
    • AND
    • OR
    • NOT
    • PROC_RESULT
    • SPOUTPUT
    • NULL
    • TRUE
    • FALSE
    • DD_INSERT
    • DD_UPDATE
    • DD_DELETE
    • DD_REJECT
    If the
    Explore
    page is currently active and a project or folder is selected, the default location for the asset is the selected project or folder. Otherwise, the default location is the location of the most recently saved asset.
    You can change the name or location after you save the mapping using the
    Explore
    page.
  3. Optionally, enter a description of the mapping.
    Maximum length is 4000 characters.
