How to Add Domains to a Domain Value Map

You can define additional domains to map, which are represented as columns in the domain value map. You can also specify whether each new domain contains values to be included in the lookups at runtime or if it is only used to qualify the mapping. Note that domain (column) names must be of the type NCName (non-colonized name), which is a valid XML element name with no colons.

To add a domain to a domain value map:

  1. If the map file is not open in the Domain Value Map Editor, double-click the DVM file in the Applications window.
  2. In the Map Table, click Add and then select Add Domain.

    The Create Domain dialog appears.

  3. In the Name field, enter a column name.
  4. In the Qualifier field, select True to set this column as a qualifier. Otherwise, select False.

    Tip:

    For more information about qualifier domains and qualifier order, see Qualifier Domains and Qualifier Hierarchies.

  5. In the Qualifier Order field, enter a number indicating the priority of the qualifier domain.

    This field is enabled only if you selected True in the Qualifier field.
