When you transfer records and record folders that are still active, the transfer mapping capability tracks the entities by the organizations receiving and originating them.
Transfer mappings map Content Platform Engine property names to XML property names. The IBM® Enterprise Records Transfer tool includes these names in an XML file when importing or exporting IBM Enterprise Records entities. For more information about the Transfer tool, see the Transfer tool topic.
Briefly, the steps are:
You can accomplish the following tasks using this screen:
If you choose an existing mapping, you are allowed to edit the properties that are set for that mapping. You can edit the properties by using the Edit Export Transfer Mapping screen or the Edit Import Transfer Mapping screen. For more information, see the export transfer mapping topic or the import transfer mapping topic.
If you are editing an existing mapping object, the screen name is Edit Export/Import Transfer Mapping. If you are adding a transfer mapping object the screen name is Add Export/Import Transfer Mapping.
If you choose the Add Export Transfer Mapping option, you see the wizard to create a transfer mapping document object by setting its properties. For more information, see the adding a transfer mapping topic.
If you choose the Add Import Transfer Mapping option, you see the wizard to create a transfer mapping document object by setting its properties. For more information, see the adding a transfer mapping topic.
After you create an import Transfer Mapping, import the required schema files, and finish creating the mapping, you cannot import a new schema file to this import transfer mapping. You need to create an import transfer mapping with this new schema file.
