Creating a Related Output Map

You can create related output map for a forward, reverse, and self relationship from editor. You can also create related output map from the wizard. If you are creating a related output map on relationship and if the relationship has relationship attributes then for that relationship attributes, relationship output map gets created.

Procedure

  1. Right-click on the parent output map, point to Add Output Map for relationship. The relationships available for parent output map are shown. When you select relationship, available synchronization formats are displayed to associate with related output map. For example, select the reverse relationship InsuranceDetails_Vehicle_Bwd.
  2. The output map for the reverse relationship is displayed.

    


  3. You can create a related output map using an existing output map or create new output map to link with the parent output map. If you have existing output maps in the related repository, select the Use Existing Output Map option.When you select the Use Existing Output Map option, the drop-down list displays the output maps available in the related repository. Select Create New Output Map option to create a new output map for the related repository. The new output map name and description is automatically generated with numeric suffix. Select the synchronization format and click Create.
    Note: To define a relationship between two output maps of any two repositories, there must exist a relationship definition between those two repositories.
  4. You can rename the output map from the properties section. For example, you can rename the related output to InsuranceDetails_Vehicle_Bwd_OutputMap1

    


  5. Since the related output map on a relationship has relationship attributes, then for the relationship attributes, a relationship output map gets created.

    


  6. If you rename the related output map, then the relationship output map is also renamed. For example, you can rename the related output to VehicleToCustomer_Fwd_OutputMap2 then the relationship output map also gets renamed to VehicleToCustomer_Fwd_OutputMap2_VehicleToCustomer_Fwd_relationship.

    


  7. Similarly you can also create a related output for a self relationship.
