So the fundamental issue is, that I need to remap some of my Project's source tables.
For example, one table coming from HANA, is defined in IS as: "data_quality.shared/PurchasingDocumentHeader"
I not want to remap this to : "data_quality.vendor/PurchasingDocumentHeader"
My first thought was to export the project, edit the XML, and re-import.
Re-importing failed for me.
After some experimenting, turns out that the fail is nothing to do with editing XML, more to do with the compression process.
For example :
> Export a project to .zip on Desktop.
> Unzip
> Re-zip
> Import into IS : This fails.
When I import a 'normal' IS project zip file, the first step of the process prompts me for "Overwrite existing objects" and "Automatically approve imported rules".
The second stage, Maps the connection.
When I try to import a file that has been unzipped and re-zipped, things are different.
I am asked "Overwrite existing objects" , but NOT "Automatically approve imported rules".
There is no step to map connections, and the import runs having 0 against all statistics in the summary.
I guess there's 2 questions here then, first is 'how to remap a source table'.
Second is how to edit XML.
Hope someone can help !!
