Right-click a transformation group and select New to build your data workflow.

3. Configure Reader

  • Double-click the reader to open Reader Properties

  • Choose a table, object, or custom query where the source supports it

4. Configure Writer

  • Double-click the writer to open Writer Properties
  • Select the DBF connection
  • Choose the destination and write mode, such as append, replace, or truncate

5. Map and Format Fields

  • Map Salesforce fields to DBF columns
  • Apply data transformations, conversions, or validation rules if needed

6. Run the Transformation

Click the Run button (Green Arrow). The data will be copied from Salesforce to DBF with built-in logging and error handling.

Help with your Salesforce transfer

If this is a one-off Salesforce export, you may not need automation. If the same Salesforce-to-DBF copy happens every week, automate it once and let the scheduler do the boring bit.

If you get stuck, ask in the support forum and include the source table, destination table, and relevant log message. You can also review the connection and transformation guides below.
