Syndicating

[Former Member]

Hi SDNers,

Facing a Problem.

If I search a record I can see only I record in Data Manager. If I right click on that record and select EDIT KEY MAPPINS then I can see 4 Keys with 1 Key Default.

But When I am Syndicating Only the default Key records as to Syndicate in Output. But in my Scenario all 4 Key Reocrds are Syndicating.

I am expecting only I record in output. the record is Default record.

Any Solution or Suggestion.

Thanks

Hi Ravi,

This is the way Syndicator works for main table.

Hi Ravi,

When you syndicate a table with multiple key mappings, all keys will be syndicated regardless if they are default or not. (this is by design)

The only situation where default key is effective is with lookups.

If you have for example:

Main table

Field1 Field2

X A

Y B

And Field2 is a lookup whose key mapping values are:

Field Key mapping Default

A AA1 No

A AA2 Yes

B BB1 Yes

B BB2 No

Then if you syndicate the main, you will get the following:

Field1 Field2 lookup-key

X A AA2

Y B BB1

Hi Edna,

Thanks for ur reply.

I can see a record like this in MDM Data Manager

Filed 1 Field 2 Field 3

Record 1 2 1

If I right clcik on this record and select EDIT KEY MAPPINGS it is showing 4 records in that one record as default.

Like this as an Example.

Default ID Remotesystem Key

"YES 1 xxxx 1"

No 1 xxxx 1

No 1 xxxx 1

No 1 xxxx 1

I can see like this

After this if I syndicate only one record as to Syndicate (i.e Default Reocrd having YES).

But in my case it is syndicating all four records.

I am expecting only I record in output. The Default record with YES

Any solution.

Hi Ravi,

Your expectation is not synchronized with the way it is designed. Default key mapping is meaningful to look ups only and is meaningless to main table. All keys of main table are syndicated. (in 7.1 it is slightly different: when the main table is referenced by lookup main in another main table, the default key of the referenced main table is the only one syndicated for the lookup main, still all keys of the main table will be syndicated )
