Create New Rules/Steps

As outlined in the Message Trees Tab section, new rules / steps can be generated easily from the inbound/outbound message trees. They can also be created manually. Select the Add New Rule/Step task to the left: A new rule/step is created and added to the table. To change the type of rule/step, double-click the cell in the Type column. To change the name, double-click the cell in the Name column. Some rule/step types have names auto-generated from the properties and so do not allow editing in the table. If you are creating a filter rule, you can change the operator of the rule by selecting the AND or OR button next to the name. Parent topic: Edit Filter / Transformer Views

Transformer Tasks

The following context-specific tasks are available throughout the Edit Transformer View: Task Icon Task Name Description Add New Step Adds a new transformer step to the table. If an Iterator step or any step that is a child of an Iterator is currently selected, the new step is placed at the end of the children of the most immediate parent Iterator. Otherwise, the new step will be placed at the very end of the list at the bottom of the table. Delete Step Removes the currently selected step from the table. If an Iterator step is deleted, all of its children are also deleted. Assign To Iterator Adds the selected step to a new or existing Iterator. For additional information, see Working With Iterators. Remove From Iterator Removes the selected step from its current Iterator. For additional information: Working With Iterators Import Transformer Imports a transformer from an XML file. You can choose to completely replace the current transformer, or simply append the steps to the current tab

Edit Data Types

You can edit the properties for the destination transformer's inbound data type. A filter only has access to the inbound data type, while a transformer has access to both inbound and outbound data types. Additionally, when editing the destination transformer the inbound data type may not be changed, since it must remain the same as the source connector's outbound data type. However, you can still edit the properties for the destination transformer's inbound data type. An image of the Message Templates tab editing the inbound data type. When selecting the Properties button, a dialog opens allowing you to edit the various inbound or outbound properties for the data type. This is a subset of the view shown in the Set Data Types Window. For additional information, see About Data Types and Data Types. Parent topic: Message Templates Tab
