Creating a cross reference table

You must create a Cross Reference Table component before you can add its rows and columns.

Procedure

1. Go to the Build page.

2. Do one of the following:

   • On the Create New tab, scroll down and click Cross Reference Table.

   • In the Component Explorer, click the gray arrow icon next to the desired folder, select New Component, select Cross Reference Table, type a name, and click Create.

   The Cross Reference Table page opens.

3. Type a name for the cross-reference table, if you have not already.

   The maximum length is 255 characters.

4. From the Data Match drop-down list, select the type of data matching to be performed against the cross-reference table:

   • Exact Match – Table entries must match the input values exactly.

   • Matches Regular Expression – Table entries can include syntax for complex pattern matching.

   • Matches Wildcard – Table entries can include the wildcard characters * (for multiple characters) and ? (for a single character).

5. Click Save.

To make a new cross-reference table component usable in processes, you must configure and populate the table. You can do this by:

• Manually adding rows and columns

• Importing a CSV file

note

You cannot populate cross reference tables or update dynamically. If you need a data structure that you can update dynamically, consider using a document cache or an external database table.
