Source systems of the type “file” are used in import formats to import data from fixed and delimited files.
FDMEE creates a file-based data load system automatically. If you need to create an alternate file-based data load source system, follow the procedure below.
To use file-based import formats, you must define a file-based data load.
To add a file-based data load definition:
Enter the source system details:
In Source System Name, enter the file-based data load system name.
In Drill Through URL, specify the URL that identifies the URL to use for drilling through.
In ODI Context Code, enter the context code.
The ODI context code refers to the context defined in Oracle Data Integrator. A context groups the source and target connection information.
After you add a file-based data load system, select the source system in the table. The details of the system are displayed in the lower pane.
