Displaying Data Mapping Details

The Display Data Mapping form shows you where information is stored in the database. This helps, for example, when you need to know the file and the field names to select tables and properties for Informer reports.

This form is available from the Actions menu of most system forms.

To learn where information is stored in the database:

1.

Navigate to the appropriate form in the system.

2.

Open the Actions menu and select Display Data Mapping. The Data Map form opens, listing the fields in the form and the corresponding information.

3.

Make a note of the information you need.

4.

In Informer, open the Mappings tab and then select the Table Name that closely matches the File Name.

The the system file names have a period and Informer names have an underscore. For example, AD.CONTACTS matches to AD_CONTACTS.

5.

Match the attributes to find the Informer property names.
