Mapping property

The Mapping property specifies the mapping between the elements of the context message and their values.

Those values can be table fields, literal, literal values or results of function calls. Click Details in the property value cell to show the list of the mappings.

The standard mappings are shown on the left side. You can make changes to the standard mappings on the right side.

For the various mapping types and the helper functions, see "Model Editing" in the Infor Enterprise Server InContext Modeling Development Guide.

Note: In the current version of Infor LN and the Extension Modeler, changing the custom mapping type to None sends the element with an empty value. It does not omit the element. This issue will be solved in a next version of Infor LN.

See the After Mappings hook for an example how to remove an element from the context message.

Note: We recommend that you do not change the mapping of identifying fields in the inforBusinessContext message. The inforBusinessContext message is, amongst others, used by the Related Information contextual widget/application. This application is part of Infor Document Management (IDM). After changing the mapping, documents may not be found by IDM and thus not shown in the Related Information contextual widget/application. Changing inforBusinessContext must be done consequently for the different sessions where documents of the Infor LN object are shown. Ensure that the changes are also inline with changes to the Business Context Model in IDM.

For more information about the Business Context Model, see the IDM documentation.
