The Functions tab
The functions that you can add to a map between input and output parameters of an activity are listed in the Functions tab.
You can add functions to the mappings between the input
and output parameters of an activity to alter the data flowing through
the orchestrations. Using the functions available on the Function
tab, you can complete the following actions:
- calculations
- converting datatypes
- re-formatting data
- combining multiple data fields into a single field
For the list of functions available with Studio and for reference information about each function including the input and output parameters, see the Mapping Function Reference section of the Studio online help.
From the Functions tab, you drag the desired function onto the link between an input and output node of the Mapping editor. If the functionality you need is not available in one of the standard Studio functions, you can create your own custom functions. For more information, see the Mapping Custom Functions section of the Studio online help.
