Definition

If you reference another tree node, you define which node information is to be used by specifying a node attribute. For example, you can specify that the current node contents or the current counter reading for the node is to be used.

If you specify the node contents, you can additionally specify either the internal value (the value before a conversion, if defined) or the value in its final file format.

Data Mapping: From the Source Field to the File Field

First, the contents of the source field (structure field, constant, and so on) are transferred to an internal target field. You specify the length and type of this internal target field in the attributes of the element or atom.

In the second step, the internal target field is transferred to the final file target field with the same length. The file target field always has the type "character". This second step is not performed for technical nodes.

If a conversion rule has been defined for the corresponding DMEE node, this conversion takes place in the second step. This means that the initial value for the conversion is the internal target field.
