Value mapping for character SPACE

[former_member208581]

Hi all,

I'm struggeling at the moment with the value mapping for some values. In my case I do a fixed set of values which be mapped with the following value pairs:

X to Y

' ' to N

Especially the second pair seems to be not such easy. After entereing the value mapping group with space doesn't appear in the created value mapping group object.

Any ideas how this can be done using value mapping except using default in Message Mapping?

Thanks,

Axel

Hehe, this bothered me awhile

Now i put an unused character like ^ instead of space.

In principle this is not space, but empty string, so in graphical mapping a replace empty string by ^ and vice versa.

Hi Axel,

The value mapping group will not accept any space or blank values. But what you acan do is just replace the space with some other value and create a value mapping for that value. Lets take in your case source_field1 is the field that carries 'X' or ' '. Just replace the ' ' with 'Y' in the message mapping and create the value mapping for the value 'Y'. Hope this helps!
