The Mapping Demo is the first step when preparing an anonymous demo site with fictitious departments and property names. It’s accessible under Global settings > Mapping Demo in PMI.

Note: this feature is available only to d2o employees

What’s it for?

Use Mapping Demo to create a deployable demo site based on existing chain databases. This is great for demos or training purposes where real data should be anonymized.

Quick Steps to Set Up

1. Navigate to Mapping Demo (Global Settings).
2. Click “Initiate Demo Instance” to create a new demo based on an existing template.
3. Select a template from the dropdown. If none exist, create one:
   • Choose a chain
   • Select properties
   • Click Save
   • Name your template
4. Pick an expiration date (calendar icon).
5. Once both template and date are set, the Initiate button becomes blue. Click it to start.

Good to Know

• Only one active demo per chain is allowed.
• Templates must be edited (target names changed) before saving or initiating.
• Use the pencil icon to rename fields. Red alert = required changes.
• Demo expires on the date you select, but can be updated or deleted by the owner.
