How are data mappings deployed?

Data mappings created for Customer-Defined Databases (CDDs) or for TDE data mappings are deployed to the InForm application but must be enabled in the InForm application.

Similarly, CIS data mappings must also be enabled. To enable your data mappings in the InForm application, you must create a synchronization connection in the CIS application.

CIS and CDD data mappings

You can create a data mapping when you design your study to define what your data will look like. When you create a deployment package, you choose the data mappings to include in the package, and the selected data mappings are deployed as CDDs in the InForm application.

You can also use mapping definitions to create CIS mappings. CIS mappings are used to transfer data from an InForm study to a Clintrial protocol using the CIS application.

SDTM data mappings

You cannot create complete SDTM data mappings with a data mapping in the Central Designer application; however, the ability to create SDTM data mappings is available as an Oracle Services offering.

Rules and data mappings

You can write a rule that references a data mapping, but you cannot use rules to manipulate data mappings.

Rule creation

Data mappings can also be used for rule creation.
