Guidelines for Using the EIM Table Mapping Wizard

If you use the EIM Table Mapping Wizard, then use the following guidelines:

• You must set the Type property for any table you use with the EIM Table Mapping Wizard to one of the following values:

  • Data (Public)

  • Data (Intersection)

  • Extension

  • Extension (Siebel)

• You cannot use the EIM Table Mapping Wizard with a custom table because no EIM table exists to choose in the EIM Table Mapping Wizard.

• You can map a single column in an interface table to multiple base tables or extension tables. Do not map multiple interface table columns to a single column in a target table because it can create ambiguity for EIM.

• EIM does not validate an interface table or a column definition. EIM validates a list of values against the lists of values that are defined for the base columns where the values are mapped.
