Creating a submap by using the Graphical Data Mapping editor

Create a submap by defining a Submap transform between an input object and an output object in a message map.

A submap enables you to use the same piece of mapping function in multiple message maps.

Complete the following steps to create a submap:

  1. Create a connection between global input and output elements in a message map, and then select the Submap transform on the connection.
  2. In the Properties view of the Submap transform, click New to create a submap.

    The New Message Map wizard is displayed.

  3. In the New Message Map wizard, specify a new message map file. Complete the following steps:
    1. Select Submap called by another map as the type of map that you want to create.
    2. Select a container or create a new one. This is the project where the message map is created.
    3. Enter the map name.
    4. Optional: Select Use default broker schema, or select a broker schema.
  4. Click Next
  5. In the New Message Map wizard, verify that the map inputs and outputs that are selected are correct.
  6. Click Next.
  7. Click Finish.

The new submap is displayed in the Graphical Data Mapping editor.

Edit the submap. For more information, see Editing message maps.
