Create mapping from source to target in infomatica:
Create a New Mapping: In the Designer window, go to File > New > Mapping. Give your mapping
a meaningful name related to the functionality it will perform.
Add Source and Target: Drag the required source(s) from the Source Analyzer onto the Mapping
Designer workspace. Similarly, drag the target(s) from the Target Designer onto the workspace.
Connect Source to Target: Create transformations in the mapping to transform the source data
into the required format for the target. You can use various transformation types like
Expression, Aggregator, Joiner, Lookup, etc., depending on your requirements. Connect the
output ports of the source to the input ports of the target.
Define Transformation Rules: For each transformation, define the transformation rules. This
includes data type conversions, filtering, aggregations, joins, lookups, etc. Ensure that these
rules align with the business requirements.
Implement Data Validation: Implement data validation rules as per the business requirements.
You can use transformations like Filter, Router, or even custom expressions to validate data
integrity, completeness, and correctness.
Handle Error Records: Implement error handling mechanisms to capture and handle any invalid
or erroneous records encountered during the ETL process. You can use techniques like error
logging, rejecting, or redirecting records to error tables.
Test the Mapping: Once the mapping is created, thoroughly test it using sample data sets. Verify
that the data is transformed correctly, and the validations are working as expected.
Deploy to Production: After successful testing, the mapping can be deployed to the production
environment for ongoing ETL processing.
Schedule and Monitor: Set up scheduling for the ETL process and monitor the mappings for any
issues or errors during regular execution.
Documentation: Document the mapping design, transformation rules, data validation logic,
error handling procedures, and any other relevant information for future reference and
maintenance.
