Adding elements and attributes to JET transformation input schemas

An element represents an input that is required by the JET transformation. A transformation input schema can contain many elements, and each element in a transformation input schema has a multiplicity of zero-or-more. You can add one or more attributes to elements, and create JET actions that are associated with an element. Attributes further describe elements, and are also required as input to a transformation.

Before you begin

You must have a JET transformation project in your workspace.
