You can define your own custom Activities for use with LANSA Composer. Once your Activity is fully-described to Composer, you can orchestrate it along with other Activities and Transformation Maps in a Processing Sequence.

You will require Visual LANSA software and have the ability to write Visual LANSA RDMLX programs in order to create your own Activities.

Developing a custom Activity should involve at least the following steps:

• Step 1. Plan Your Custom Activity
• Step 2. Define the Activity to LANSA Composer
• Step 3. Create the Activity Processor
• Step 4. Test your Activity
• Step 5. Deploy your Custom Activity

For general considerations about integrating your custom LANSA code with your LANSA Composer solution refer to:
