- OAES Data Mapping

OAES Data Mapping

This window enables you to maintain the optional parameters required for each Event Subscription. You can configure data mapping which assigns values from the OAES to PROIV Scratch or File Variables. The mapping is one way and always OAES -> PROIV. Arrays are supported but all of the elements must be alphanumeric. Maps cannot be referenced in logic etc., therefore they are not named. In addition, all parts of the mapping must be manually entered as there is not a parameter list to validate and control the map.

Note: Up to 99 data mappings can be entered against an OAES and the mapping process is optional.

To define the data mapping, follow these steps:

Open the relevant function.
Click on the Function Definition Properties icon and click on the OpenAjax tab.
Click Properties.
The Properties for OpenAjax Event Subscription window appears.
Click Data Mapping.
The OAES Data Mapping window appears.
Create the data mapping using the using the following table as a guide:

Item	Description
Seq	Automatically generated sequence number for the data mapping.
Parameter	Enter the name of the parameter. Free text with a format of '.' (dot) separated strings e.g. myaddress.line1 A200 - Mandatory - Alphanumeric and '.' are the only acceptable entries.
Map To	Select a PROIV Scratch or File Variable from the Map To drop-down list. Click ... to display the Variable Selection window and select the appropriate variable. The entry is validated to ensure it is a valid Scratch or File Variable and the same type (alphanumeric) as the OAES parameter. Click ... to display the Variable Selection window and select the appropriate variable.

Click OK to save the changes and to exit the OAES Data Mapping window.
