Source data set configuration

In order to add a new source data set, click on “Add new source data set” on the upper left handside of the screen:

sourcedataset3

You will be taken to a mask asking you to enter the name of your new source data set. Enter a name and click on the “Save” button:

queldatenset-new

The dialog will reload and extent by further settings and the additional tab “Mapping tables”:

Workflow and Attribute selection

This section lets you configure both workflows and attributes. Select all PIM View workflows you wish to be considered for the synchronization. Any workflow state you do not select will not be synchronized. Following that, choose the attributes or attribute sets (classes) you wish to synchronize to your IntelliShop. If the attribute set class has childs, then you have to select them too! You can use the dialog chooser for attribute sets or add attributes manually in the field below. Manually added fields must be separated with the pipe sign “|”.

Workflow State Mapping

You can also define what CONTENTSERV PIM View workflow status should become what product status in the IntelliShop. The source data set offers another simple mapping table for that purpose:

Click on the “plus” button to add more lines to the table. Several CS statuses can be selected for the IntelliShop online or offline.

Attribute mapping

Ultimately, every CONTENTSERV PIM field that contains data that your IntelliShop needs must be mapped to its IntelliShop counterpart. We created another mapping table for that. Click on the tab “mapping tables” on the upper left handside of the screen:

Standard attribute mapping for files

mapping1

Standard attribute mapping for products

You can find the standard attribute mapping in the first section of the mapping table tab.

This section is added automatically to your source data set as soon as you set the desired application (in this case: IntelliShop). The section contains mandatory fields of IntelliShop – synchronization without the mapping of these attributes would fail. All you need to do is set the CONTENTSERV counterpart field.

Additional attribute mapping

Additionally, if you set attributes in the “Configuration of the data source” section on the first tab of the source data set, all selected attributes will be displayed here as well.

Your mapping table could look something like this when you are done:
