Configuring the data flow

To configure the data flow, optionally add transformations to the mapping.

To add a transformation, perform either of the following actions:

On the transformation palette, drag the transformation onto the mapping canvas. If you drop the transformation between two transformations that are connected, the Mapping Designer automatically connects the new transformation to the two transformations.

On the mapping canvas, hover over the link between transformations or select an unconnected transformation and click the Add Transformation icon. Then select a transformation from the menu.

On the

General

tab, enter a name and description for the transformation.

Link the new transformation to appropriate transformations on the canvas.

When you link transformations, the downstream transformation inherits the incoming fields from the previous transformation.

For a Joiner transformation, draw a master link and a detail link.

To preview fields, configure the field rules, or rename fields, click

Incoming Fields

Configure additional transformation properties, as needed.

The properties that you configure vary based on the type of transformation you create. For more information about transformations and transformation properties, see

Transformations

To save your changes and continue, click

Save

To add another transformation, repeat these steps.
