Data transformation properties

You can modify an object's properties from its property sheet. To open a data transformation property sheet, double-click its diagram symbol or its Browser entry in the Data Transformations folder.

The General tab contains the following properties:

Property Description
Name Specifies the name of the item, which should be clear and meaningful, and should convey the item's purpose to non-technical users.
Code Specifies the technical name of the object, which is used for generating code or scripts.
Comment Specifies a descriptive comment for the object.
Stereotype Extends the semantics of an object derived from existing objects but specific to your needs. You can type stereotypes directly in this field, or add stereotypes to the list by specifying them in your model's resource file or in an extended model definition.
Assigned variable Specifies the variable that receives the result of the transformation. You can select an object from the list, or use the tools to the right of the list to create an object, browse the available objects, or view the properties of the currently selected object.

[BPEL languages only] Specifies an organization unit to represent the partner who sends the message.
Assigned Part [Only process languages supporting messages in variables] Specifies the message part that receives the result of the transformation. The assigned variable has to be typed by a message format. You can click the Properties tool to view the properties of the selected object.
