You can add new input entities to some TS Quality processes in an existing project. When you add a new input to an existing process, you can select unattached entities included within the project or entities that reside outside of the project, including all entities in the repository unattached to the project. When you select an outside entity, TS Quality first adds that entity to the project and then adds it as an input to the current process.

The following processes can use multiple input entities:

  • Transformer
  • Reference Matcher
  • File Update
  • Merge Split
Note: When you add an output entity from a compressed project to an uncompressed project, the data processing option in the target project will be automatically set to compressed (Minimize Disk Space). Conversely, when you add an output entity from an uncompressed project to a compressed project, the data processing option in the target project will be automatically set to uncompressed (Maximize Performance). For more information about using and modifying data processing options, see Minimize Disk Space and Maximize Performance.

To add new input to a process

  1. From the Navigation or Project View, right-click the process with which you want to work, and select Add new inputs. The Add Input Process window opens.
    Note: Some processes accept only a single input. For those processes, the Add new inputs option is disabled.
  2. Select one of the following:
    • Unattached entities in the project (default)
    • Unattached entities in the repository

    The Entity selection list gives you a list of available entities.

    • By default, entities that were created as the output of a Quality process are omitted from the list. If you prefer to include them, select the Include TSQ output Entities check box to list all entities.
    • Filter. Use the Filter text box to filter the entities in the list. For example, if you are looking for the entities that were created in 2011, enter "2011" in the Filter text box. If you are looking for dynamic entities only, enter "dynamic" in the text box.
    • Sort. By default, the list is sorted in ascending order. You can rearrange the order of the entities by clicking the column headers.
  3. Select the entity or entities you want to add.
  4. Click OK. If the entity is output from a project that uses a different data processing option, the External Project Data Setting window opens alerting you that the current project's data processing option will change based on the entity. Click Yes to continue or No to select another entity.
  5. Refresh the view, expand the project's Entities folder, and verify that the entity was added.
  6. Expand the Inputs folder for the process and verify that the input entity was added.
