Creating a Process
You can create a process file using the new Process wizard or without the process wizard.
Note: If you have edited DataIntegrator v9 process files in DataConnect v11 or later version, you will not be able to load it in DataIntegrator v9 again.
Creating a Process Using Process Wizard
Using the new process wizard, you can create a process that contains Start step, Transformation step, and a Stop step linked together. Within the wizard, you can transform source data into a new or existing target file or table. You can also join two source into a new or existing target. If macros are used, the macro sets will be added to the Configuration tab in the new process.
Note: The new Process wizard currently supports a Transformation step only. In future releases, additional step types will be added.
