Device Activity Mapping Function List

General

Mapping functions can be configured to set up a mapping determination on a field received in a DI message: RCV-DEVICE-ACTIVITY.

Mapping functions can be split in two groups:

  • Basic mapping, a value can be extracted directly from the original message. For example, an activity code, vehicle number or an order number.
  • Advanced mapping, when a value extracted from the original message has to be converted in a value which can be processed by 3PL Dynamics. See page: Device Activity Mapping.

The page: Device Mapping Function List can be opened when clicking in the field: Mapping Function on the page: Mapping Configuration, which can be openend when clicking on the action: Edit in the tab: Mapping on the page: Device Activity Configuration.
