The following rules and restrictions apply to dataslot mapping:
The default rule is that, a dataslot from the source process template can be mapped to another dataslot from the target process template only when both the dataslots are of same type (for example, INTEGER to INTEGER, CHARACTER to CHARACTER ).
An object dataslot of a source process template can be mapped to another object dataslot of the target process template only when both the object dataslots hold objects of the same java class.
Note: In migration map utility, you cannot differentiate whether the dataslot object is a
Business object or normal object
Date time or Date only
String or multiline
Note: Only major types of dataslots are displayed in the Type box.
Dataslot size changes are supported only for CHARACTER. Migration tool allows the size changes only when target dataslot size is larger than the source dataslot size.
In the case of DECIMAL dataslot, the source and target dataslots must be identical in Scale and precision.
Source dataslot of type INT64 can only be mapped to target dataslot of type INT64.
Source dataslot of type ‘Global’ can only be mapped to target dataslot of type ‘Global’.
The default rule is that, a dataslot from the source process template can be mapped to another dataslot from the target process template only when both the dataslots are of same type (for example, INTEGER to INTEGER, CHARACTER to CHARACTER ).
