Documentation

Definition

Identifies a substep of a mapping where a target structure is filled from a set of source structures.

Use

Dependencies

Example

You have created a mapping for a service implementation. In this service implementation, the header and item structures of a backend API must be filled. The source structure is the generated service structure. In this case you must create at least two mapping steps since only one target structure can be filled in one step. Therefore, for example, one step to fill the header structure and another one to fill the item structures.
