Mapping Header Values to Item Nodes

May 11, 2006 at 08:43 AM | 12 Views

Using the graphical mapping editor, I need to map values from a source header level node to a target item level node for each item in the source structure.

eg.

<b>Source</b>

<HEADER>

<H1>HeaderValue1</H1>

</HEADER>

<ITEM>

<I1>Item1Value</I1>

</ITEM>

<ITEM>

<I1>Item2Value</I1>

</ITEM>

<b>Target</b>

<ITEM>

<H1>HeaderValue1</H1>

<I1>Item1Value</I1>

</ITEM>

<ITEM>

<H1>HeaderValue1</H1>

<I1>Item2Value</I1>

</ITEM>

If I map the source <ITEM> node to the target <ITEM> node and the <H1> and <I1> nodes as shown above, the <H1> node only appears on the first item. I need the <H1> node to appear for all target <ITEM> nodes.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks.

    HI Mark,

    Use 'copy values' standard function and it should work.

    Hi,

    Use CopyValues function to simply copy the value.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    You need to use, useOneAsMany node function.

      Hi,

      Try this:

      <header>---\

      <item>----- -<useOneAsMany><splitByValue>--- <header>

      <item>-----/

    Hi Briggs,

    This Mapping will Solve Ur Problem

    Source Structure:

    MT1 1..1

    Header 1..1

    H1 1..1

    Item 0..unbound

    L1 1..1

    Target Structure:

    MT2

    Item 0..unbound

    H1 1..1

    L1 1..1

    Mapping that solve Your Problem is :

    Item(source)-->Item(dest)

    H1(Source)>copy value (property=0)>H1(dest)

    L1(source)-->L1(source)

    Hi,

    Both CopyValue and UseOneasMany will be helpful in your case. But I think CopyValue will be more advantageous because less mapping funcions have to be used.

    And if you are using UseOneAsMany then the three parameters will be H1(context Header), L1(context input_DT, Level above header) and L1 (context header). For changing the context right click the node in Graphical mpping and change.

    In My Mapping(Solution to ur Problem)

    MT1 and MT2 correspond to Root Elements....

    root 1..1

    Header 1..1

    H1 1..1

    Item 0..unbound

    L1 1..1

    Target Structure:

    root 1..1

    Item 0..unbound

    H1 1..1

    L1 1..1

    Mapping that solve Your Problem is :

    Item(source)-->Item(dest)

    H1(Source)>copy value (property=0)>H1(dest)

    L1(source)-->L1(source)
