Creating a Process File
A process consists of individual steps that are configured and linked to execute a workflow in the required order. The process steps rely on the components that perform multiple tasks. For example, running transformations and executables, or making updates to an SQL database.
To create a process file:
2. Select a DataConnect project and do any of the following:
• Go to File > New > Process.
• Click the arrow in
and then click
Process.
• Right-click on the project and then click New > Process.
The New Process File window is displayed.
3. In the Process File Name field, type a name for the process and click Next.
4. In the Process File Description field, type a description.
5. Click Finish.
A new process file is created and it opens as a separate tab.
Note: When creating a map in a workspace that already has only XML-based artifacts and if v9 compatibility mode is not enabled, then DataConnect detects that the existing artifacts are v9 compatible but the Compatibility mode is not enabled. The Compatibility Mode Preference Confirmation window is displayed asking if you want to enable v9 compatibility mode for new artifacts. Else, the new map is created in JSON format.
6. After creating a process, a prompt appears asking if you want to switch perspectives. Click Yes.
