The BIC Mapping Designer is installed locally on your machine. The repository which contains all mappings for the staging and the production environment is located in the iPaaS system. To start working, you need to connect the BIC Mapping Designer and the iPaaS system via a URL.
Information: If you have not worked with the BIC Mapping Designer before, we strongly recommend to take one of our training courses: Business Integration Converter 6 Basics, Business Integration Converter 6 Advanced and SEEXML. |
