You would only need the Empty Dataset if you are making more than one source or target.

Components of an Interface
The interfaces use the following components:
- Datastores defined in the models as sources and target of the loading process.
- Knowledge Modules to generate the appropriate processes.
- Variables and Sequence to store values or counters in the expressions.
- Users functions to ease the transformation rule coding.
Flow and knowledge modules
The flow is the set of loading and integration strategies for mapped data, based on knowledge modules as :
- Loading strategy: Loading Knowledge Module (LKM)
- Integration strategy: Integration Knowledge Module (IKM)
- Control strategy: Check Knowledge Module (CKM). The flow control strategy lets you define the method used to check the flow before the insertion in the target.
