Export Mappers

Export Mappers define how system data is formatted and structured before being sent to external platforms. They are essential for generating properly mapped files (e.g., invoices, payment logs, events) that comply with third-party system requirements such as ERPs, banks, or BI tools.

Export Mappers in Tridens Monetization are used to structure outbound data (like payment records, invoice data, or event logs) into a format required by external systems — such as banks, ERPs, billing partners, or BI tools.

With export mappers, you define how system data is transformed and formatted before being exported, ensuring compatibility with third-party consumers.


Where to Find Export Mappers

Navigate to:
Business Configuration > Export

Create Import Mapper - Payment Figure 1: Export Mappers default page


Export Mapper Types

The Export Mappers screen contains three distinct tabs, each representing a domain-specific export type. Like the Import Mappers, all use the same configuration format.

Available Tabs:

  • Payment Mappers
  • Invoice Mappers
  • Event Mappers

Each tab includes an Add option to configure a new export mapper.


Adding a New Export Mapper

Click the Add button in any of the tabs to launch the Create Export Mapper form. The fields below are common to all three mapper types.

Tabs Overview

1. Payment Mappers

Best Practices

Info “Tip” - Match export structure to the destination system’s field specs (e.g., CSV column names). - Use the Prefix field to version or timestamp your exports. - Validate the delimiter with the file viewer or script consuming the export. - Always test export mapping in a non-production environment first.


Summary

Export Mappers help you deliver structured, compatible, and accurate outbound data to external systems.
Be sure to:

  • Name each mapper clearly
  • Upload a representative file structure
  • Match export fields to system data

Once configured, export mappers automate file generation, improve compliance, and enable seamless integrations.
