2. Click the relevant table in Table section.

3. Click the column for which you want to view the Auto Documentation and select View Lineage/View Impact from the drop-down menu.

4. Display how the source data is mapped to the target in either of the following ways:

  • In the Graphical view, move the pointer over the Relationship Attribute icon ( ).
  • In the Tabular view, in the Mapping column, locate the data flow.
