Create and test a change

Your first workflow - Stage 4 of 5

Map your source values to the target and verify one selected operation.

Before you begin, complete Match and select records.

Create the mapping

1. In Output > Mappings, select Add.
2. Choose the target System, Target table, and appropriate Function.
3. Enter a descriptive name and select Save.
4. On the Mapping tab, select the filter you created.

The function must match the target table and the operation you intend to perform. See Create a mapping.

Review the target values

1. Map values from the Items pane to the target attributes in Attribute Mapping.
2. Populate the required attributes, shown in bold.
3. If needed, use name generators or password generators.
4. Inspect the values for your selected record, including the identifier and destination.
5. Save the mapping.

Check before running: The selected record, operation, attributes, and target location all match your intended change.

Run one selected operation

This changes the target system

A mapping test run writes a real record to the target system. It does not update NIM's Vault data. Confirm the selected record and destination are within the scope chosen by the implementing administrator.

1. Open the mapping's Run tab.
2. Select one pending operation in the Operation pane.
3. Select Run Selected Item.
4. Review the result in the Item pane.

See Test run a single mapping operation.

Confirm the result

1. Open the target system and locate the changed account or record.
2. Check its identifier, destination, and mapped attributes.
3. Review any errors before attempting another operation.
4. Collect and load the target again so NIM can work with the updated target data.
5. Recheck the filter. For a create-only workflow, the newly matched account should no longer qualify for creation.

First success: One intended change exists in the target, and the refreshed data reflects it.
