mapping workflow.
In order to test post-processors you must execute them manually by clicking the Apply button in
the Post-processor step properties (see "Postprocessor step properties" on page379).
Note that in the DataMapper and Designer, only one data record is active at any given time.
Therefore, the changes made by the post-processes are only visible on the current data record
(i.e. the one currently displayed). If you change data records, you must press the Apply button
on the Postprocessor step once more.
In order to test a case with multiple records you must either use the data mapping configuration
in a print job through the Designer or in the Execute Data Mapping task in Workflow so that all
records will be processed by the Postprocessor step.
The Data Model
The Data Model is the structure of records into which extracted data are stored. It contains the
names and types of the fields in a record and in its detail tables. A detail table is a field that
contains a record set instead of a single value. The Data Model is shown in the Data Model
pane, filled with data from the current record.
The Data Model is not related to the type of data source: whether it is XML, JSON, CSV, PDF,
Text, or a database does not matter. The Data Model is a new structure, designed to contain
only the required data.
