Designing and Executing Processes
Process Editor is a graphical data transformation management tool that you can use to arrange your complete transformation project. You can organize map transformations with logical choices, SQL queries, global variables, Microsoft DTS packages, and any other applications necessary to complete your data transformation. Once you have organized these steps in the order of execution, you can run the entire workflow as one unit.For example, a map can be called from within Process Editor using a Transformation step. You can create new transformations, use existing transformations, or copy original transformations before using the .tf.xml file in a Transformation step. The original transformation file information remains unchanged.

You can view the specific examples and customize your own processes. For more information, see the process samples available at Samples.
Note:  Languages that use Unicode are automatically handled only if you have the Java Development Kit (JDK) installed on your system. DataConnect installs the Java Runtime Environment (JRE), so to work with components you must choose a regional language setting. For supported encodings, see help topics on encoding.
