Defining the custom indicator

Before you begin

You have selected the Profiling perspective of Talend Studio.

In the DQ Repository tree view, expand Libraries > Indicators.
Right-click User Defined Indicators.
Select New Indicator from the contextual menu.
The New Indicator wizard is displayed.
In the Name field, enter a name for the Java indicator you want to create.

Information noteNote:
Avoid using special characters in the item names including:

"~", "!", "`", "#", "^", "&", "*", "\\", "/", "?", ":", ";", "\"", ".", "(", ")", "'", "¥", "'", """, "«", "»", "<", ">".

These characters are all replaced with "_" in the file system and you may end up creating duplicate items.
If required, set other metadata (purpose, description and author name) in the corresponding fields and click Finish.
The indicator editor opens displaying the metadata of the user-defined indicator.
