Configuring an entity node label

The entity node label is configured by setting the contents of a <nodeLabel> element.

About this task

The entity node label uses replacement patterns.

For example, <nodeLabel> This is my entity named {replacementPattern}</nodeLabel> replaces {replacementPattern} with the matching replacementPattern attribute that is returned from the hub server. For InfoSphere® MDM Server the attribute is in the server response XML file. For IBM® Initiate® Master Data Service the attribute is returned directly from the server.

Procedure

  1. Open the BPMConfig.XML file.
  2. Specify the <nodeLabel> for the entity. Examples of different entity node labels:
    Example 1:
    <entity type="id" cvw="EMCA">
  <nodeLabel>{LGLNAME:onmLast}, {LGLNAME:onmFirst}</nodeLabel>
    Example 2:
    <entity type="Person" mdmType="//mdm:TCRMPersonBObj" id="mdm:PartyId" showRelationships="true">
  <nodeLabel>{mdm:DisplayName}</nodeLabel>
    Example 3:
    <entity type="Organization" mdmType="//mdm:TCRMOrganizationBObj" id="mdm:PartyId" showRelationships="true">
  <nodeLabel>{mdm:DisplayName}</nodeLabel>
    Example 4:
    <entity type="Hierarchy" mdmType="//mdm:DWLHierarchyNodeBObj" id="mdm:HierarchyNodeId">
  <nodeLabel>{mdm:InstancePK}, {mdm:Description}</nodeLabel>
  3. Save and close the BPMConfig.XML file.
