Mapping input to output elements manually
Use the Graphical Data Mapping editor to map from input to output elements.
Before you begin
- Create a message map by using the Graphical Data Mapping editor. For more information, see Creating a message map.
- Add input and output objects to a message map. For more information, see Adding input and output messages.
About this task
Note: You can also use the Graphical
Data Mapping editor to map automatically
from input to output elements. For more information, see Mapping input to output elements automatically.
Procedure
To create manually the mappings between elements in a message map, complete the following tasks:
- Add connections between the input and output objects. For more information, see Adding connections between input and output elements.
- Optional: Connect multiple input elements to a transform. For more information, see Connecting multiple input elements to a transform.
- Create the transforms. If the transform that you have selected is a type that is part of a nested transform (for example, Local map, Join, If), you must enter into that nested map and complete the transformation in it. For more information, see Specifying a transform (mapping operation).
- Set the properties for the transforms (for example, Condition, Cardinality, or Order).
What to do next
When you have added your input and output objects, created the connections between them, and specified your transforms, you can test your message map. For more information, see Troubleshooting a message map.
