Editing Transfer Files with the Editor

Use

You can use the data transfer editor to modify a data transfer file. This editor is particularly useful if you want to edit transfer data during the test, that is, before it is actually transferred. In a converted file, you can correct errors, for example.

Prerequisites

An initial data transfer file or a different file in the appropriate format is available.

Features

You can edit the transfer file at field or structure level. In particular, you can:

Delete structure lines

Duplicate structure lines

Edit blocks of structures (that is, select, cut or copy and paste)

Edit fields in individual structures by entering field values

The possible entries in the editor are usually supported by the input help.

Activities

In the Data Transfer Workbench, choose Goto ® DX Tools. The Data Transfer - Tools screen appears.

Choose an existing transfer file for an object type and the associated task type, program type, and program/method, and choose Change File.
