Registering Data Sources

Keeping ODD Column Metadata Current

After you create an ODD, if any changes are made to the columns in the data source that is specified on the Data Location tab, you must update the ODD's column metadata to match the data source.

Mapping processes, such as the one shown in ODD in a Process Flow, use the Columns tab metadata to map columns from the source to the target. The Columns tab metadata must be accurate, or the Mapping will not match the columns that are actually in the data source.
