Step 6. Create a mapping task

Step 6. Create a
mapping
task

In the following procedure, you create a

mapping

task that uses the mapping that you just designed.

Now that you have a valid mapping, you can use the

mapping

task wizard to create tasks based on the mapping. Because you used parameters in the mapping, each time you run the task, you can change the parameter values. After the task runs, you have a target file that contains account information for the state that you specify in the filter condition parameter.

To create a

mapping

task based on the mapping, while still in the Mapping Designer, click

Actions

and select

New Mapping Task

, as shown in the following image:

The

mapping

task wizard appears.

On the

Definition

page, enter

mt_Accounts_by_State_task

for the name of the task.

Select the runtime environment to use to run this task. It should be the same runtime environment that you used to create and test the mapping.

The following image shows the

Definition

page in the

mapping

task wizard:

Click

The

Targets

page appears. You can either select a target object from the list or click

Create Target

to create a new target.

Click

The

Input Parameters

page appears and displays the

Filter Value for State

filter condition. You can change the value of the parameter, if desired.

Click

The

Schedule

page appears. Because this is a tutorial and we do not want to run this

mapping

task on a regular basis, leave the default values.

Click

Finish

to save the Accounts by State

mapping

task.
