Transformation Designer
During the transfer of data, rules are executed by Transfer Desk that transform data before it is transferred. For example, a rule may add two fields together and place the result in a new field. Transformations also provide the means by which file layouts are mapped, for example, from external data to SSML format. Transformations are attached to profiles.
Transformation scripts contain the following sections:
- Mapping of data elements from external files to SunSystems format or from SunSystems format to external files
- Assigning of values
- Definition of functions to transform values.
Note: Transformations ignore mappings
from SSC and SSC/Payload. For example, if Simple XML format is used any
attributes are excluded from use if they are on a node which is mapped to either
SSC or SSC/Payload.
