Definition

Contains the structure of the direct predecessor (parent) of the source data.

Use

In some cases, fields of a superior structure are required for transformations, such as currency fields at header level, for example. For this purpose you can enter, not only a source structure, but also the structure of its predecessor and the predecessor of that predecessor. Four predecessor levels are supported:

  • first predecessor (parent)
  • second predecessor (grandparent)
  • third predecessor (great-grandparent)
  • fourth predecessor (great-great-grandparent)
