Excluding LU Tables from Broadway Flow Creation
The TDMFilterOutTargetTables Actor contains a list of LU tables that do not require the creation of load and delete flows. By default, this Actor is populated by both TDM tables and target LU tables that were added to the LU for enabling entity deletion:
To filter out additional tables, open the TDMFilterOutTargetTables Actor and edit its table object. Use the following attributes to populate the lu_name column:
- ALL_LUS — when a filtered-out table applies to all TDM LUs.
- LU name — when a table belongs to a specific LU.
Generator Filterout Checkbox
In some cases, tables may need to be added to the LU schema to retrieve child IDs and support the BE hierarchy. For example, the addition of the Orders table to the Customer LU generates a list of the customer's order IDs. For these tables, TDM needs to create data generation flows, and therefore the generation_filterout checkbox is cleared. These tables still need to be added to the TDMFilterOutTargetTables Actor to prevent the creation of load and delete flows for them; such tables are already loaded/deleted by the child LUs. In other scenarios, data generation flows should not be created for LU tables, such as TDM tables in the LU. In these cases, the generator_filterout column checkbox must be checked (i.e., set to true).
Applying Changes to the TDMFilterOutTargetTables Actor
After updating the Actor, refresh the project by clicking the refresh button at the top of the Project tree. This action applies the changes in the TDMFilterOutTargetTables Actor and deploys the LU.
