Complete the following steps to configure the general
properties of a transform:
- Open the Properties tab of a transform
by using any of the following methods:
- In the Properties tab, add, modify,
or remove resources:
- Select Cardinality to select the indices
of the input and output elements that you want this transform to operate
over. For more information, see Selecting the indices of input and output array elements.
- Select Variables to list the names
of the input elements connected to the transform. Select Edit to
change the name of a variable.
- Select Condition to define an expression
that must be evaluated against the input element before the transform
is applied. If the condition evaluates to true,
the transform is applied to the input element.
- Select Filter to define an expression
that must be evaluated against each element on a repeating input element
before the transform is applied. If the condition evaluates to true,
the transform is applied for each input.
- Select Sort to sort the inputs to the transform by ascending order,
descending order, case order, or data order. Then, complete the following steps:
- Select Sort the inputs to thsi transform.
- Add elements to the Sort by column.
- Select a sort method.
Note: The element or elements that are used to provide the sort must provide a singular, scalar
value. If you nest sorts, each sort uses the original input data value for the sort element.
Specifically, the outer sort cannot use the result of a nested sort.
- Select Order to display the order of
input connections to a transform. You can reorder them.
- Select Documentation to provide a description
of the transform, or other relevant usage notes.
