Task

A feed stores status or category as short codes, for example A and N. The final file needs readable values.

Short Answer

For a small dictionary, add several replacement rules in one column: Aactive, Ninactive.

How to Do It in Eofferix

  1. Create or open the final status column and choose the code column as the source.

    The settings button is highlighted under the final status column.
  2. In Transformations, add a rule: condition Current value equals A, action Replace with, result active.
  3. Add the second rule: condition Current value equals N, action Replace with, result inactive.
    Rules that replace A and N with dictionary values
    The status settings contain two rules: A is replaced with active and N with inactive.
  4. Save the column settings.
