Creating a Property Alias

You can create property aliases after creating a property in the Add Correlation Set dialog.

1. Select a property from the Available Properties list in the Add Correlation Set dialog.
2. Select Property Aliases.
3. In the Property Aliases dialog, select New.
4. In the Define Property Alias Details dialog, select Dialog Button next to the Type field to open the Definition dialog. The dialog contains messages, schema types and elements from namespaces imported into the process, as shown in the example.



5. Select the variable definition: WSDL Message, Schema type, or Schema element. The list of available types appears, depending on the definition type you select.
6. Select a message, schema type, or element from the list and click OK.
7. On the Define Property Alias Details dialog, if required, select a variable Part for the property alias, as shown in the example.



8. If the part is a complex type, type in a Query or select the Dialog button to open the Query Builder and add the selection node from the part.
9. Click OK.
10. Repeat the steps above to add property aliases for all messages, schema types, or schema elements that should be included for the property. Your selections may depend on how you want to group messages for correlation.

After you add a property alias, ActiveVOS displays the property for the process variable, as the example shows.

ActiveVOS also adds the property and property alias to the WSDL View of Project Explorer, as shown.

Tips for creating property aliases:

• You can add property aliases one at a time.
• You can edit and remove property aliases as needed. The WSDL file and relevant process variables get updated correctly.
