I am sorry. I still do not really understand. After a try, the sources are inputed to datasource, but I cannot find it. Where can I find it?
Steps: 1) Go to "DATA FILE TOOLS" and fill in the file link, enclosed please find the format and the files: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <data-files xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://www.ofbiz.org/dtds/datafiles.xsd"> <data-file name="productImport" separator-style="delimited" type-code="UTF-8" delimiter="	" text-delimiter="" description="this takes the product data from doba file" has-header="true"> <record name="Product" limit="many"> <field name="productId" ignored="false" type="String"/> <field name="sku" ignored="true" type="String"/> <field name="categories" ignored="true" type="String"/> <field name="brandName" ignored="false" type="String"/> <field name="price" ignored="true" type="String"/> </record> </data-file> </data-files> http://www.nabble.com/file/p25326822/productImport.csv productImport.csv http://www.nabble.com/file/p25326822/productschema.xml productschema.xml 2) Get the Entity XML File http://www.nabble.com/file/p25326822/productOutput.xml productOutput.xml : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <entity-engine-xml> <Product productId=""productId"" brandName=""brandName"" /> <Product productId="20270308" brandName=""PLUSTEN"" /> <Product productId=""012224"" brandName=""ARTBOX"" /> </entity-engine-xml> 3) Go to "ENTITY ENGINE TOOLS" > "XML DATA IMPORT", input the Entity XML file, get the message input to datasource. What next? I cannot find the data. What is going wrong?
