The table below shows the data relationship between PMI data elements/fields (target) and corresponding source data elements/fields (source).
You will find the transformation/load rules meant to explain any programmatic manipulation and calculation applied in the adapter to get the desired data format and/or result in the PMI staging table where such have been applicable.
An example of the source file data, format and structure is also attached below the table.
This table will be updated whenever the source file or the adapter in question are changed throughout the interface life-cycle.
NB. This export lacks property name and therefore needs to have each property defined in [TimeSystem_Properties_External] with the “Property ID” (from the source file).
