Configuring the source

Configuring the source

Configure the source on the
Source
 page of the
replication
 task wizard.
Column names of a database source must not contain spaces or hyphens.
If you replicate a source with a name that includes a dollar sign ($), the
replication
 task replaces the dollar sign with an underscore (_) in the target name.
  1. In the
    Source Details
     area, select a connection.
    To create a connection, click
    New
    . To edit a connection, click
    View
    , and in the
    View Connection
     dialog box, click
    Edit
    .
  2. To select the objects to replicate, select one of the following options:
    • All Objects
      . To replicate all objects in the database or Salesforce account, select
      All Objects
      .
    • Include Objects
      . To select the objects you want to include, click
      Select
      . In the
      Include Source Objects
       dialog box, select the objects to replicate and click
      Select
      .
    • Exclude Objects
      . To select the objects you want to exclude, click
      Select
      . In the
      Exclude Source Objects
       dialog box, select the objects to exclude and click
      Select
      . The task replicates all available objects except for the selected objects.
    The
    Available Objects
     area displays up to 200 objects. If the objects that you want to use do not display, enter a search string to reduce the number of objects that display.
    When you select an object, it displays in a list. To remove a selected object, select the object and press
    Delete
    .
  3. If you want the
    replication
     task to stop processing when it encounters an error, click
    Cancel processing the remaining objects
    .
    If you want the
    replication
     task to continue to process a task after it encounters an error, click
    Continue processing of the remaining objects
    .
    By default, the
    replication
     task stops processing the task when it encounters an error.
  4. To display technical names instead of business names for some source types, click
    Display technical names instead of labels
    .
  5. Click
