Extractions and Sources, Oh My!

I'm running into a problem trying to create sources from the extract constituents module. I would like to have one source for all the inclusion segments in my extraction. The documentation clearly states that I should be able to, "Extraction sets can create source codes, one for each segment or one for the set as a whole, and promote the sources to the records of the constituents selected by the set. " However, I can't find in the documentation how to do so. Normally, I just save each set to list and create sources manually through appeals, but I was hoping to make better use of this specific functionality. Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4


Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

  • Hi Marta,

     

    You are correct.  If you extract to a list you only get one source, and if you extract to a file you get one source per segment but you must promote at the time of extraction.  What’s the reason you don’t want to promote at the time of extraction when extract to a file?  Just trying to see what the best solution might be for you.
