Using Custom Synchronization Formats

Procedure

  1. Copy the EAN.UCC synchronization format to create the <CustomUCC> format.
    • Select the EAN.UCC format check box and click the Copy button.
    • Provide a name and description on the Synchronization Format copy screen.
  2. Create output map <CustomOutputMap>.
    • Go to Item Data->Repositories
    • Select a repository, go to the Output Maps tab, click Create.
  3. Change the rulebase to select <CustomOutputMap>. For more information on creating a rulebase, refer the TIBCO MDM Studio Rulebase Designer Guide. The modified rulebase section will look like the following: 
    <assign>
	<var>OUTPUTFORMAT</var> 
<const type="string">CustomOutputMap</const> 
</assign>
    Note: If you are not using the default EAN.UCC format, you need to make changes to the rulebase to publish an output map created for a custom synchronization format.

    Navigate to <MQ_COMMONDIR>/standard/rulebase/rbsyncstatusupdatederivation.xml to add the name of custom output map instead of "EAN.UCC" as in the following section: 

    <assign>
<var>OUTPUTFORMAT</var> 
<const type="string">EAN.UCC</const> 
</assign>

    There may be several similar replacements required.

  4. Perform Update sync status. For more information on updating synchronization status, see Updating Synchronization Status.
