To Modify a Standardization Definition (XML Editor)

1. In the Projects window, expand the Configuration node in the project you want to modify, and then double-click mefa.xml.

   The file opens in the NetBeans XML editor.

2. Scroll to the structures-to-normalize element in the StandardizationConfig element.

3. To modify the standardization type, change the value of the standardization-type attribute.

4. To change the variant, change the value of the domain-selector element (described in Master Index Normalization and Standardization Structure Properties).

5. To modify an existing source field, scroll to the appropriate group element, and then change the value of the unstandardized-source-field-name element to the ePath of the new field.

6. To modify an existing destination field, scroll to the target-mapping element in the standardization-targets section, and then change the value of either target mapping element (these are the last two elements described in Master Index Standardization Source and Target Field Elements).

7. To remove an existing source field, delete all text between and including the unstandardized-source-field-name element that defines the field.

   Note –

   If no fields require standardization in a defined standardization structure, delete the entire structure as described in Deleting a Master Index Standardization Definition.

8. To remove an existing destination field, delete all text between and including the target-mapping tags that define the field.

   ---

   Note –

   Each standardization structure must have at least one destination field defined for standardized data. If a structure does not contain any fields that need to be standardized, you can delete the entire structure, as described in Deleting a Master Index Standardization Definition.
