Reusing a Saved Mapping

Overview

Import Rx allows you to reuse a previously saved mapping when uploading a new file, helping you streamline repeat imports.

When a Mapping Is Available to Reuse

A saved mapping will be available for selection only if your file contains all columns required by that mapping. Import Rx compares the columns in your uploaded file to those defined in the mapping to determine compatibility.

To reuse a mapping:

• Every mapped column must exist in the file,
• Additional columns in the file are allowed, and
• Missing columns are not supported.

Example: Mapping is Available

Let’s say you have an existing mapping called Map50, which includes 50 columns.

Source file: 51 columns

• Includes all 50 mapped columns
• Includes 1 extra column

Result: Mapping is available and can be selected.

Example: Mapping is Not Available

Here is a second example using the same existing mapping with 50 mapped columns.

Source file: 49 columns

• Missing 1 required column

Result: Mapping is not available for selection.
