Defining Interface Areas

Before you create synchronizations using an interface area as the source, you must create interface data sources. See Configuring Interface Data Sources.

  To create interface areas:

  1. Select File, New, Data Interface Area Definition.

    Data Interface Area Mapping Wizard.
  2. Select the interface table source, database table that contains the data to import, and the column that contains the data values for each row, and click Next.

  3. Define the dimension by selecting a column on the left and entering the dimension name on the right. Then, click Add Columns Button to add more columns.

    For example, if the column name is SCENARIO_DIMENSION_NAME, you can change the name displayed to “Scenario.”

    Tip:

    Click Remove Columns Button to remove a column.

  4. Click Next.

  5. Enter the interface table name, optional description, and then click Finish.
