Setup a transformation list for CSTypes

Sometimes it is necessary to convert the internal CS attribute types into known types for external systems.

However, CONTENTSERV only specifies the respective name of the plugin as type. Thus a number has accordingly the type: ../admin/core/cstypes/numberCSType.php

To process this for the target system, you have to transform these plugin paths, e.g. ../admin/core/cstypes/numberCSType.php => number

The best way to do this is to use a transformation list.

A fairly complete list of possible CS types can be found here:

You can also download an import file for the transformation values (Download Excel Import File for Transformation List), which you can import as shown below. It is important that you enter your SCValueMapID in the Excel list before you import it.
