Target Design

Sync Complex Rules with Map

Complex rules are documented and assigned to fields in Target Design and can store a SQL function, BODS functions or stored procedure. Once the fields' Target is synced to Map, the Target Rules for the fields display on the Field Mappings page.

NOTE Complex rules provide information that the Data Services developer uses when writing the rule. When an AutoGen request is processed, a placeholder where complex rules can be developed is created.

Refer to Data Services AutoGen for more information.

For a field with a Complex rule that uses a BODS function, the settings on the Field Mappings page in Map are:

  • Action— Rule
  • Rule Status— Complete
  • Mapping Status— Complete
  • Edit, Reset, and Submit icons are disabled
  • Rule Comment— Indicates that the rule has been added in Target Design
  • Comment— Indicates that the rule has been added in Target Design
  • Mapped On— Displays the date that the Target was synced
  • Mapped By— Displays Target Design

If a Complex rule has a SQL function stored in Target Design, then the settings on the Field Mappings page in Map are:

  • Action— Manual Rule
  • Rule SQL:— Not Populated
  • Rule Status— Complete
  • Mapping Status— Complete
  • Edit, Reset, and Submit icons are disabled
  • Rule Comment— Displays the description or the Target Rules as added in Target Design
  • Comment— Indicates the rule has been added in Target Design
