Creating a Data Input

You can create a data input in any of the following ways:

Drag a source data store (database, XML document, business process, or flat file) from the browser or from an information liquidity diagram, and drop it onto the data transformation diagram.
Drag a PDM table or view, an XSM element, or a BPM operation from the browser, and drop it onto the data transformation diagram.
Use the appropriate Data Input tool in the diagram Palette.
Right-click a data transformation task in the Browser, and select New > Data Input .
Open a transformation task property sheet, click the Inputs tab, and click the Add a Row tool.
Select Model > Data Inputs to access the List of Data Inputs, and click the Add a Row tool.
