There are two ways of copying the Data Validator master mappings.
-
Copying each component of the required master mapping like the import definition, the validation ruleset, the job definition, and the export mapping.
-
Copying all the components of the required master mapping using the master job definition only.
The following procedure describes copying a master mapping using a master job definition.
In the Data Validator Data Administration module:
-
Configure the copying behavior for the export mappings in the Import page of the Data Validator Administration System Options. For more information, see Copying behavior for export mappings.
-
Copy the required master job definition from the Data Validator Administration Job Definitions toolbar. For more information, see Copy a job definition.
-
Ensure that the object weights are set correctly for all stage to target mappings and that none of the weights is set to zero in the Export Mappings page in Data Validator Administration. For more information on object weights, see Configure Data Validator mappings.
In the Desktop Client:
-
Click Find > Data Validator > Job Details Item and search for the job details item associated with the copied master job definition. For more information, see Create a new job details item object.
