How to Map Item Data
You map item data to define the data extraction from an orchestration.
Note
You must be certain to map data type values that are compatible with the activity items when creating tracking profiles. If the data types are not compatible you will receive a BAM runtime error.
Note
When mapping milestones, such as Date/Time stamps, the data being mapped must conform to the SQL string representation of a date time stamp. DateTime data in the XML DateTime format that is formatted in the following manner, YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.mmm-HH:MM, is not supported.
For example, the following date string, 1999-05-31T13:20:00.000-05:00, is not supported.
Prerequisites
Deployed BAM activity definitions and orchestrations that you will connect.
How to map item data
Open an existing tracking profile or create a new tracking profile. For more information about creating a tracking profile, see How to Create a Tracking Profile.
In the scenario, an activity definition called LoanProcessBamDef is imported. It contains the LoanProcess activity node, with a customer's SSN as an ActivityID. For more information, see Activity and ActivityID Nodes.
Ensure that every activity has an ActivityID or a ContinuationID data item, such as customer SSN, to track.
Map orchestration actions to the appropriate business events folder to indicate the event to track. For example, in a loan processing scenario the following items, among others, would be dragged under the LoanProcess activity folder:
LoanApplicationReceived
CreditHistoryRequest
CreditHistoryResponse
