Transformation Designer - transformation language - introduction
TML is a language written in XML that defines how output data should be generated from given input data, during a data transfer process.
The language has the following key features:
- Simple field-to-field mapping from the input data (source) to the output data (target).
- Mapping of multiple fields in the input data (source) to a single field in the output data (target).
- Setting of fixed values in the output data (target).
- Transformation of output data values (target) using Java Script scripts. This provides highly flexible definition of complex, conditional setting of values, including full calculation facilities.
