Map

Copy a Mapping

A user can view a history of all archived mappings (from System Types) across all Waves and Process Areas for a field. The user can copy a specific mapping to use in the selected Target or Source.

NOTE: Only one mapping can be copied at a time.

When viewing all mappings for a Source, only Source rules display on the Field Mappings by Target Field (All Waves) page. When viewing all mappings for a Target, only Target rules display.

NOTE: If the selected field has an action (as in, a selection displays in the ACTION column), the Copy icon is disabled. Fields with an action cannot be copied.

NOTE: If the current user is a member of the Map WebApp groups "Ready Only" or "ValueMapper" and is not a member of other groups with broader authorization for changes, the Copy icon does not display. An Administrator assigns users to WebApp Groups.

NOTE: Instead of copying a single mapping, a user can also import all mappings in a mapping set into a Source from a System Type. Refer to Import and Export Mappings for more information.

To view all mappings for a field and copy a mapping to the selected Target or Source in Map:

  1. Select Map in the Context bar.
  2. Click the Targets icon on the Process Area Launch page

    Or

    Click the Targets icon and click the Sources icon for a Target.

  3. Click the Mappings icon.
  4. Select a mapping.

  5. Click the View All Waves Mappings icon in the Page toolbar.

    NOTE: If no rows display on the page, either the field has not been mapped in any System Type or the selected field is {Target Rules} and so a mapping cannot be copied.

  6. Select a mapping to copy to the selected Target or Source.

  7. Click Copy.

    NOTE: If more than one mapping is selected, this icon is disabled.

    NOTE: If the selected field has an action (as in, a selection displays in the ACTION column), the Copy icon is disabled. Fields with an action cannot be copied.

The copied mapping displays on the Field Mappings page with a Mapping Status and Rule Status of Pending Review.
