Editing an Existing Event Map
You can edit a previously created event map using the Edit Event Map page.
Important:
You can edit and save a user defined event map, but certain changes may cause the loss of dependent KPI and Rule definitions as well as any related event and analytical data collected. When saving, Optimize will analyze your changes and warn you if any loss of data may occur. You then have the option to either cancel the changes or proceed with the save.
Note:
You can view system-defined event maps such as StationHealth or ProcessMetrics on the Edit Event Map page, but you cannot modify them.
Note:
You can edit event maps that are based on subscribed event types but you cannot add or remove event fields from them.
To edit an existing event map
1. In My webMethods, navigate the following path: Navigate > Applications > Administration > Analytics > KPIs > Business Data (Optimize for Process only) or Navigate > Applications > Administration > Analytics > KPIs > System Data (Optimize for Process and Optimize for Infrastructure).
2. Click the name of an event map, or click 
Edit beside the event map you want to edit. The Edit Event Map page is displayed.
3. In the Event Information panel, make any desired changes as appropriate for your selection.
If you are editing a System Data event map, the
Event Information panel displays the
Name and
Event Type for the Event. Neither of these fields can be edited.
If you are editing a Business Data event map the
Event Information panel displays the
Name and
Event Type for the Event as well as the
Business Process associated with the map. You can edit the business process association by clicking the Down arrow to the left of the
Business Process field and selecting a different business process.
4. In the Field Mapping panel, click Add Field to add a new field, or click Edit beside a field name to reconfigure an existing field and make any desired changes in the Field Mapping dialog box. For more details about any of these fields, see
Adding a New Event Map. Note:
You cannot add or remove fields for event maps based on subscribed event types.
6. To add a new field mapping (for example, if you are using the Web Service Data Collector and you start collecting new types of data), click Add Field and complete the fields in the Field Mapping dialog box as many times as necessary.
7. If you are ready for Optimize to begin collecting event data, click Save.
When you click Save, Optimize allocates database tables to store the event data in the database and also begins to process incoming data for the event map. You can edit and save a user defined event map, but certain changes may cause the loss of dependent KPI and Rule definitions as well as any related event and analytical data collected. When saving, Optimize will analyze your changes and warn you if any loss of data may occur. You then have the option to either cancel the changes or proceed with the save.
