4. Under the source data item column, select the source data item fields to map to the corresponding dimension fields.

   You can provide a constant value in the source data item field. After check in the system verifies whether the dimension field type is compatible with the constant type.

   You can map a dimension key field that is part of a composite key to a "Null" or constant value only if at least one of the key fields of the composite key is mapped to a source data item field. You cannot map a dimension key field that is part of a composite key to "Skip".
