Execute Data Mapping
The Execute Data Mapping action task generates a record set by executing a data mapping
configuration on a data source. It can also automatically create a record set from a PDF/VT file
without using a data mapping configuration.
If the input is paginated, this task can create a Print Content Set as well, making it possible to
bypass the Job Creation task in a print process if there is no need to merge the data with a
template.
Tip
Drag-and-drop a data mapping configuration from the Connect resources in the
Configuration Components pane on a process to add this task.
Input
Optional. Both main options can refer to external files, but either one can be the active data file
using %F. By default the Data Source is set to use the active data file as input.
Note
To open a Microsoft Access database, you have to use the Load External File task just
before the Execute Data Mapping task.
Processing
The task executes the selected data mapping configuration on the appropriate data source, or
converts the PDF/VT into a Record Set directly.
If the input is paginated, this task can create a Print Content Set as well.
