The following steps describe how to map from source using
Map
from Source, or using the drag and drop method.
Using Map
from Source
Using the drag and drop method
Drag the
appropriate source element or elements onto the target element or elements
(Ctrl+click to select multiple source or target elements.)
When you
use the drag and drop method to map from source, mapping by selection is always
performed. You can use the drag and drop method in the following scenarios:
- More than one mappable source element is selected. In this case, the selected
sources are mapped to the selected target.
- More than one mappable target element is selected. In this case, the selected
source is mapped to the selected targets.
- One mappable source and one mappable target are selected, and neither
element has any children. In this case, the selected source is mapped to the
selected target.
- The selected source and target elements have the same type definition,
or when the source type is derived from the target type. In this case the
entire structure below the element is copied.
In other scenarios, when a mapping by selection is not possible, the Map
by Name wizard opens to enable a Map
by Name mapping to be performed instead.
