Batch Processing
Introduction: You can find a description of this phase in section Phase 3 (Introduction).
You can open the batch processing via the source structure or target structure menu. Batch processing allows you to efficiently change various properties of fields and/or nodes of the respective structure.
(1) Here you can search and replace different source structure or target structure attributes for all nodes and fields. In addition, the names of nodes and/or fields can be searched and replaced.
(2) Here the templates for the corresponding data types of all fields of the source and target structure can be changed.
(3) Following an overview of all functionalities.
|
Functionality |
Scope |
Description |
|
Remove mandatory attributes |
Source structure, target structure |
All mandatory attributes can be removed in the source and target structure respectively (concerns fields and nodes). |
|
Remove description |
Source structure, target structure |
All values of attribute Description can be removed in the source and target structure respectively (concerns fields and nodes). |
|
Remove namespaces |
Source structure, target structure |
All values of attribute XML namespace can be removed in the source and target structure respectively (concerns fields and nodes). |
|
Hand down XML namespaces |
Target structure |
Starting from the top level, all nodes inherit the value of attribute XML namespace to underlying fields and nodes in the target structure if those do not already have a value there. If a lower level node did not get a value from a higher level node (because it already has one), the lower level node will inherit its value to underlying fields and nodes. |
|
Remove all functions |
Target structure |
Removes all functions in the target structure (concerns fields and nodes). |
|
Delete matchcodes |
Source structure |
Removes all match codes in the source structure (concerns fields and nodes). Note: See also section Checking and Creating Match Codes. |
(4) You can modify all database aliases used in the target structure (only there).
(5) You can modify the settings of attributes Fill with and Fill from left for all fields of the target structure (only there).
