Data Mapping is a very common task in the integration business. The Designer offers you a powerful tool to define data mappings directly by drawing object flows between the properties of the related classes.
You can create a mapping diagram by creating a mapping operation on a class. The mapping diagram is based on the data model contained in the Implementation folder. It defines mappings between the data structures defined in this data model. You cannot change the data model in the mapping diagram, all attributes are read-only.
Refer to Modeling Data Structures for more details on how to create a class operation.
