Transformations

Overview

Transformations is the searchable list page for transformation definitions in the warehouse model. Use it to find transformations by schema, name, transformation type, historization type, or dummy-entry setting, then open the selected transformation for detailed maintenance.

Function

The page combines a search filter with a read-only result grid. The ETL toolbar opens the full transformation list. When the list is opened from a schema in the navigation tree, the results are scoped to that schema.

The search field filters by schema name, transformation name, and historization type. Press Enter or use Search to refresh the list, and use the clear-filter action to return to the current context's full result set.

Each row shows the schema, transformation name, transformation type, historization type, and whether dummy-entry creation is enabled. Double-click a row to open the Transformation page. Use New to start the transformation creation assistant, Duplicate to copy a supported selected transformation, and Delete to remove the selected transformation after confirmation.

Access

Open the list from a schema's Transformations node in the navigation tree or from the Transformations command in the ETL toolbar.
