Creating the record manipulator

The record manipulator in the partial update pipeline examines whether the record is going to be added, replaced, updated or removed.

To configure the record manipulator:

  1. In Developer Studio, specify the following settings in the Sources tab of the Record Manipulator editor:
    Option Description
    Record source Select the name of the property mapper.
    Dimension source Select a dimension server if the record manipulator is performing any DIM_ACTION or DVAL_ACTION operations; if not, you can select None (as in the sample pipeline).
    Record Index You can leave the tab empty.
  2. In the Expression editor, add expressions similar to those described in "About the IF expression for the record manipulator." You open the Expression editor by double-clicking the record manipulator component in the Pipeline Diagram. You can add expressions after the record manipulator is created.
