Log Target Values for Debug

To simplify troubleshooting complex mappings when developing a form mapping. When temporary values in particular are used, the value of these are not recorded anywhere, making it sometimes difficult to find errors in mappings.

So, the full set of values for target entries, including any temporary variable values to the log after the data update step has been completed.

Values should only be output for the first 100 records migrated for each DMD

Long values (over 500 characters) will be truncated to 500 characters and it should be obvious in the log output that this truncation has occurred

Null values will be recorded as ‘NULL’

This additional logging performed if the ‘debug’ checkbox is checked in Execution Settings (on the Logging and Reporting tab).

 

UI

In the Execution Properties dialog, a warning should be shown if the Include debug information option is checked stating that ‘Target Data will be written to the log since the debug information is included in the logging. Note that this may include sensitive data.’

Then press schedule execution

once the execution is completed, press the view log button.

Example Expected Output

Below is an example of expected output for 2 records with 3 field mappings
