The Map Component

This section provides details as to how to operate the Map component of the application. Follow the instructions and the screen shots provided below.

1. Open an existing process that you have already created (see section 4.2 on how to create a process)

2. Right-click on the created process in the Navigation section of the Process Builder and select 'Open'.

3. Next select the rectangular process in the process map labeled "execute" (this rectangular box is called an "action"), right click on the selected box and click on "open dataflow" in the menu.

5. Right click on the action "Map" and select "properties"
6. Next you will find that you can edit the map file and sequence in the properties tab.
7. The sequence is useful when you have more than one map in the process so that you can specify as to which map should execute first. The maps execute in the ascending order as specified. As soon as you drag and drop the map on the canvas it asks for a name to be specified for it. Providing the name is necessary for each action.

Note: If the sequence number is not present for the map then please enter it manually if you need to do so.

8. Click Delete to delete the specific Map component.
9. Click Close to close the Map window.

A process is a collection of workflows that makes integration work. Any process can be scheduled to run at regular intervals. 

The process listing page has download functionality. A user can download a whole set of processes - i.e download project in a zipped format to the local file system.
