Select the fields that you wish to map to and then click OK.

Note: The list of available fields may not exactly match those in a data file. For example, a column named "Item ID" in the data field may need to be mapped to the "Item Code" in Compeat.

Formatting Rules

 

You can apply functions to transform the data as it is imported. To create rules for a field, select the field and click on Edit Formatting Rules. These rules include functions for concatenating, removing spaces, converting case, basic math functions, and more. A brief description each function will display at the bottom of the dialog when you click on the function in the "Available Rules" list.
