Import Mapping Group Detail Pane

When an import mapping group node is selected in the schedule tree, its defined mappings are displayed and accessible in the detail pane.

Mapping ID

Identifies the import mapping group in all MES data records, so must be unique and is not editable after the first mapping in that group is defined and saved.

External Name

Name used by an external system for a data value that it will send into your MES system. Identifies the import mapping in all MES data records, so must be unique and is not editable after the definition is first saved.

Internal Name

Name used by the MES system for that data value. The field names can be found in the MES database documentation.

To modify an import mapping, change the desired internal name. Click Save to keep your change or Cancel to discard it.

Right-clicking in the import mapping definition pane opens a context menu that contains the following options:

Add

Creates a new import mapping.

Delete

Deletes the selected import mapping. You will be prompted to confirm the delete.
