When you have finished configuring the channel and its source and destination components, you are ready to add the channel.

To add the channel, click Add Channel, located at the bottom of the Configure Channel screen.

	If your channel uses a database as either its source component or its destination component, you must ensure that the database tables that this component requires are specified in your database. From Iguana, you can export these database tables directly to your database. For more information, see Exporting the Database Tables.

If Iguana detects an error when it adds the channel, it will display a warning in red, and an error icon will be displayed in the tab for the component that contains the error. For example, here is a channel that contains an error in the Destination component:

Click on the tab to display the error, and click Edit Channel to correct it.
