How to Use Maps in Orchestrations
BizTalk Mapper is a tool that runs within the Microsoft Visual Studio environment. You use BizTalk Mapper to create and edit maps in which you use links and functoids to define the relationship between an input and an output schema. A link defines a direct data copy of a record or field. Links may directly connect to items in the other schema, or they may form connections to functoids. Functoids perform more complex data manipulations.
