8.3 Why Can't I Map My Model?

There are three reasons why you may not be able to create mappings for milestones and indicators in your model.

  1. The most common reason is that a user may not be assigned to the appropriate persona, or role. A user must be assigned to the InsightIntegrationArchitect, InsightAdmin, or InsightModelCreator role in order to map milestones or indicators to implementation. If you are only assigned to the InsightBusinessUser role, you will be able to define the abstract elements of milestones and indicators (e.g., name, type), but you will not be able to do mappings.

  2. The second most common reason that a user may not be able to create mappings for a model is that it is not in draft mode. Only drafts of a model can be edited. If you are viewing an activated version of a model, you will not be able to modify it, including creating new mappings for a milestone or indicator.

  3. The third most common obstacle to creating mappings is that the connections used to browse application artifacts (e.g., composites or service bus project) and mapping may not have been properly set up. In this case, contact your administrator to create, configure, and test the necessary SOA Suite or Service Bus connections so that you can create mappings for your model elements.
