Step 4: Create a Transform to Map the SalesOrder Schema to the Insert Operation Schema

 

Important

Microsoft Azure BizTalk Services (MABS) is being retired, and replaced with Azure Logic Apps. If you currently use MABS, then Move from BizTalk Services to Logic Appsprovides some guidance on moving your integration solutions to Logic Apps.

If you're brand new to Logic Apps, then we suggest getting started here:

• What are logic apps

• Create your first logic app, or quickly get started using a pre-built template

• View all the available connectors you can use in your logic apps

Uses a Transform to map the SalesOrder schema (ECommerceSalesOrder.xsd) to the schema of the Insert operation on the SalesOrder table.

To configure a transform

1. In Visual Studio, right-click the EAIEDITutorial project, select Add, and then select New Item.

2. In Add New Item, select Map, enter SalesOrder_SQL.trfm for the map name, and then select OK.

3. In Solution Explorer, double-click the SalesOrder_SQL.trfm file to open the map.

4. In the Transform window, set the source schema to ECommerceSalesOrder.xsd and the destination schema to EAIEDITutorial_SalesOrder_TableOperation.dbo.SalesOrder.xsd.

5. Directly map the following nodes in the source and destination schemas:

   Source Schema	Destination Schema
   CompanyCode	CompanyCode
   PartId	PartNum
   Quantity	Qty
   AskPrice	UnitAskPrice
   RequestShipmentDate	ShipDate
   Comments	CustomerComments
   DateNow	DateRequested

6. Map the following nodes in the source and destination schemas using a String Concatenate map operation:

   Source Schema	Destination Schema
   Address\Line1	SellToAddress BillToAddress
   Address\Line2	SellToAddress BillToAddress
   Address\City	SellToAddress BillToAddress
   Address\State	SellToAddress BillToAddress
   Address\Country	SellToAddress BillToAddress
   Address\ZipCode	SellToAddress BillToAddress
   Contact\FirstName	PartnerContact
   Contact\LastName	PartnerContact

   To map elements using the String Concatenate map operation, drag-and-drop the map operation from toolbox to the mapper area. Add each element from the source tree as an input to the map operation, and then connect the String Concatenate component to the elements in the destination schema. The follow illustration shows the transform with all the relevant elements mapped:

   

   Note

   The SalesOrder_SQL.trfm is also available as part of the sample at MSDN Code Gallery.

7. Save your changes to the map.
