Configuring the target

Configuring the target

  1. On the
    Target
     page, enter the following information:
    Property
    Description
    Connection
    Connection to the target object.
    To create a connection, click
    New
    .
    To edit a connection, click
    View
    , and in the
    View Connection
     dialog box, click
    Edit
    .
    Target Prefix
    Prefix that is added to Salesforce object names to create the flat file names or table names in a target database. By default, the prefix is SF_.
    Load Type
    Type of load. Select one of the following options:
    • Incremental loads after initial full load
      . Loads all data the first time the task runs. In subsequent runs, loads changed data only.
    • Incremental loads after initial partial load
      . Loads data created or modified after a specified period in time. If you select this option, enter the date and time, for example, August 29, 2015 at 2:00. The
      replication
       task uses the time zone that is set for the user. If the server on which the data resides is located in a different time zone, adjust the date and time accordingly.
      For example, the time zone for the user is Pacific Time and the time zone for the server is Eastern Time, which is three hours ahead of Pacific Time. The user wants the initial load to replicate data modified on the server after August 29, 2015 at 2:00 AM. Because the user's time zone is Pacific Time, the user specifies August 28, 2015 and 11:00 PM.
    • Full Load each run
      . Loads all data every time the task runs.
    This option is enabled for tasks with a Salesforce source and a relational target. For all other tasks, the
    replication
     task performs a full load.
    Delete Options
    Select one of the following options:
    • Remove Deleted Columns and Rows
      . Deletes columns and rows from the target if they no longer exist in the source.
    • Retain Deleted Columns and Rows
      . Retains columns and rows in the target that were removed from the source.
    Commit Size
    Number of rows to commit.
    Default for full load replication is 5,000 rows. Default for incremental load replication is 999,999,999.
