Creating an extract service

Use the New Service wizard to create an extract service.

An extract service requires an access definition. During the creation of a service, you can select or create an access definition.

The fully qualified name of an extract service consists of: identifier.name.

identifier
Identifier that serves as the prefix for the extract service name (1 to 8 characters).
name
Name assigned to the extract service (1 to 12 characters).

When you create extract services, it is helpful to use a logical set of naming conventions to identify the use for each and to organize definitions for easy access.

To create an extract service:

  1. Expand a folder in the Directory Explorer to contain the extract service, right-click Extract Services, and click New Service. The New Service wizard opens.
  2. Complete the steps of the wizard.

    You must select or create an access definition. You must also enter a name for the target file.

The new extract service is displayed in the Extract Service Editor.
