Defining the Node Functions of the Mapping Tool

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to define the node functions available in the SAP Integration Suite, managed gateway for spend management and SAP Business Network

Defining the Node Functions of the Mapping Tool

The following table displays the available node functions and their descriptions for the mapping tool:

Node Functions

SI No.Node FunctionDescription
1Add Constant ValueConstant values can be added to any destination field
2Direct Mapping One-to-OneMap a field from source to target
3Add Source ConditionConditions can be applied based on the position or value of the source element
4Add Target ConditionConditions can be applied based on the position or value of the field on the target element
5Add For-EachCan be used to create a target node set by looping over a source element
6Group Multiple ConditionMultiple conditions can be grouped using OR, NOT, and AND operators for custom mappings
7Duplicate NodeMultiple extrinsic or custom nodes can be created using this function
8Add Target Position VariableMap source values to the target matching the target's occurrence position
9Add Target Value VariableImplements conditional mapping that applies the mapping to a target matching a source condition of the value variable type
10Choose-WhenCan be used to map one or more source elements to one target element with a condition for each source element
11Create/Replace NodeCreates a new node; required when the node is not created via standard mapping
12Delete NodeUsed to delete the existing node or suppress the standard mapping against the selected node
13Concat FunctionConcatenate up to three source elements and map to a target field
14Substring FunctionChoose a substring from a source field and add to a destination field
15Normalize FunctionRemove additional white spaces from the source XPath into the target item
16Format Date FunctionSet date pattern to be applied when writing the mapped date
17Format Number FunctionSet a number pattern to be applied on the mapped number
18Translation FunctionTranslate a value of the source field to a different value and map it to the target field
