Configure field mappings to define how the event statuses must move from the incoming transformation fields to the downstream trasnformation. Configure field mappings on the
Field Mapping
tab of the
Properties
panel.
The
Field Mapping
tab includes a list of incoming fields and B2B input fields. In B2B input fields, EVENT_ID will be the default field. The STATUS_ NAME field appears when you select
Pass the status as a parameter
in the B2B Settings tab. You can also include additional entries in the B2B input fields by adding a new field or by selecting from input group on the
Output fields
tab.
Field Map Options
Defines the method of mapping fields to the B2B transformation. Select one of the following options:
Manual. Manually link incoming fields to the B2B transformation input fields.
Automatic. Automatically link fields with the same name. Use when all of the fields that you want to link share the same name. You can't manually link fields with this option.
Automap
Links fields with matching names. Allows you to link matching fields, and then manually configure other field mappings.
You can map fields in the following ways:
Exact Field Name.
Data Integration
matches fields of the same name.
Smart Map.
Data Integration
matches fields with similar names. For example, if you have an incoming field
Cust_Name
and a target field
Customer_Name
,
Data Integration
automatically links the
Cust_Name
field with the
Customer_Name
field.
You can use both Exact Field Name and Smart Map in the same field mapping. For example, use Exact Field Name to match fields with the same name and then use Smart Map to map fields with similar names.
You can undo all automapped field mappings by clicking
Automap
Undo Automap
. To unmap a single field, select the field to unmap and click
Actions
Unmap
.
Data Integration
highlights newly mapped fields. For example, when you use Exact Field Name,
Data Integration
highlights the mapped fields. If you then use Smart Map,
Data Integration
only highlights the fields mapped using Smart Map.
