Configuring the Data Director Application Overview

Configuring the
Data Director
Application Overview

An application is the main configuration and deployment unit for
Data Director
. The application is what business users see when they launch and log in to
Data Director
. Use the Application Editor in the Provisioning tool to add and modify the applications.
You can create an application for each database in the MDM Hub environment. You associate each application with a source system, which the application uses to track data changes. To create a source system, use the Systems and Trust tool in the Hub Console. Ensure that the source system that you use is configured to have the highest level of trust. The trust level guarantees that the changes made by the application users override any other contributing value and ends up in the master record.
You can configure the application to include the search box or query form, or both. You can also configure the business entity view that you want to use to display the results of a search or query.
When you add, modify, or delete an application, to see the changes in
Data Director
, publish the changes to the MDM Hub.
If you upgraded from a version prior to 10.2, ensure that you create an application in the Provisioning tool with the same name as the existing
Data Director
application name. Configure all the application properties including the search options that you want to use.
