Set up transformation Set up transformation If you need a transformation and it does not already exist, you must set it up.You can use a transformation to change a source value into another value.You can use these types of transformations:Value: A standard transformation to directly transform a source value into another value. You have these options:Value: The source value is always transformed to another value.Condition: The source value is only transformed to another value if a condition is met. The condition is based on a table field that is defined for the source document record. So, the condition record field must be available in the source document, but it is not required in the message field mapping. Usually, the condition record field is not the field for which you define the transformation in the field mapping.Range: A transformation that is based on a range. All values that meet the range, are transformed to the defined Value to. Example: Range='EN-*' and Value to= 'EN-US'. All values that start with 'EN-' are transformed to 'EN-US'.Usually, you use either value transformations or range transformations. However, if you use a combination, first the value transformations are checked for an applicable transformation and then the range transformations. The first found applicable transformation is applied. Procedure 1. Click Connectivity studio Integration Design. 2. Click Transformations. 3. Click New. 4.
