Reverse field mapping rules

When you've designed field mapping rules for one direction, use the reverse mapping wizard to generate the rules for the opposite direction.

The reverse field mapping wizard allows you to reverse the graphical mapping rules of a field mapping or a field mapping template and configure and edit the generated template. It supports direct, conditional and ValueMap mapping rules. For more information on the reverse mapping wizard, see this blog post.

This feature is available with CollabNet Desktop – Eclipse Edition version 3.6.x (and later).

  1. Right-click a field mapping (or field mapping template) for the connector and select Create reverse field mapping.
    The reverse mapping wizard is launched. It displays all the constant, direct and value map rules that you can reverse.
  2. Update the field mapping rules you want reversed – you can enable or disable a rule, or edit a rule by clicking its name.
    Click Next.
  3. Provide a name for the new set of mapping rules.
    If you selected to reverse a field mapping rather than a field mapping template, you can choose to save it as a new field mapping or as a template. You can additionally choose to activate the field mapping.
  4. Click Finish.
