Map Fields Between Source and Target

Map Fields Between Source and Target

Summary: Map source values to target values so BrynQ can send the right data to the target app when the two apps use different field values.

Requirements: - You need access to the interface you want to configure. - The interface must include a scenario row where both Source fields and Target fields are selected. - The selected source or target field cannot be Fixed value or Empty value, because those rows cannot use a value mapping.

Map Fields Between Source and Target

Field mapping is used when the source app and target app use different values for the same meaning. For example, the source app may use Full-time while the target app expects FT.

Open the mapping window

  • Open the interface you want to configure.
  • Go to the Scenarios step.
  • Find the scenario row that needs a mapping.
  • Check that the row has the correct Source fields and Target fields.
  • Click the Mapping button in that row. The mapping window opens.

Choose the value mapping strategy

  • Use Value mapping strategy when BrynQ must compare values in a specific way.
  • Choose Exact match when source values must match exactly.
  • Choose Ignore case when uppercase and lowercase letters should be treated as the same value.
  • Choose Ignore spaces when spaces should not affect the match.
  • Choose Ignore special characters when characters such as hyphens should not affect the match.
  • Choose Flexible match when BrynQ should ignore case, spaces, and special characters.

Fill in the mapping table

  • Enter the source value in the source column.
  • Enter the matching target value in the target column.
  • Add one row for each value that must be converted.
  • Use Add column only when one mapping needs more than one source or target value.
  • Use Copy mapping from... when another scenario row already contains the same mapping values.
  • Use Set all unmapped values as if all values that are not listed should use the same fallback value.

Save and confirm the mapping

  • Review the table before saving. Incorrect mappings can delay the implementation or send the wrong value to the target app.
  • If the row shows Must fill, complete all required mapping values before you continue.
  • Select the confirmation checkbox when the mapping is complete and the values are correct.
  • Click Save.

More Information

Keep mapping values exact and consistent. If the source app can send more than one version of the same value, add each version as a separate row or choose a broader Value mapping strategy.
