Replacing the Source of an Open ODS View

On the General tab in the Open ODS View maintenance screen, you can replace the source of the Open ODS view with a different source. Provided that the Open ODS remains consistent after the source is swapped, objects that build on the Open ODS view - queries for example - can still be used.

1. On the General tab, choose Edit under Semantics.
2. To use a different source object in the Open ODS view, choose the source type in the dialog box and enter further details about the source, together with the name of the source object required.
3. Save your entries and choose OK.
   In the left of the Semantics tab page, the system now displays the source object of the selected new source object. The assignment of source field to field of the Open ODS views is carried out automatically by determining that the names are identical.
4. Once you have made sure that all fields in the Open ODS view are assigned to suitable fields in the source object, you can save and activate the Open ODS view.
