- Flows

  - About schemas
    A schema defines the contents of at least one input that you intend to map or one output you intend to map.
  - Subtypes
  - Schema hierarchy
  - Defining data
  - Objects, types, and classes
  - Testing part of a schema
    You can test a schema by generating test data for an item or a group. The schema designer creates source and compiled maps that generate and validate the test data. The test-data-generation map automatically runs and produces a text file with the sample data. After that, the test-data-validation map automatically runs on the sample data file.

Shorthand notation

In a component rule, the dollar sign ($) represents the component itself. When you enter an object name in a rule by pressing Alt and dragging the object, the dollar sign is automatically entered in the rule to represent the given component.
