Abstract
One or more mappings each define a correspondence between one or more input attributes of an input entity and one or more output attributes of an output entity, where the input entity includes one or more key attributes identified as part of a unique key, and the output entity includes one or more key attributes identified as part of a unique key. Generating instances of the output entity includes: determining one or more mapped input attributes of the input entity that correspond to each of the key attributes of the output entity, based on the mappings; and comparing the mapped input attributes with the key attributes of the input entity to determine whether the mapped input attributes include: (1) all of the key attributes of the input entity, or (2) fewer than all of the key attributes of the input entity.
