Extract a new entity from a new source

There are cases when ITBA does not provide either the OOTB CPs or the suitable target entities that could fulfill the integration requirements. In this case the modeling of the all pieces is required.

  1. Model the target entities and the references between them

  2. Create new Source and Integration Content Packs

    Note Make sure the name of the new entity includes the suffix _CSTM.

  3. Model new Integration and Source entities.

  4. Generate the ETL with the Generate Content Pack feature in order to create the new CP.

    1. The product CP directory is copied to ITBA content packs directory as a new directory

    2. The Core CP directory (delta) is merged with the existing Core directory in the ITBA content packs directory.

The new CP automatically appears in the Install Content Pack page.
