Templatize a field mapping

You can establish the scope of your mapping rules at two levels -- by setting up field mapping templates at the connector level or project level.

1. In the Site Explorer, right-click a field mapping and select Templatize. Here's an example.
   
2. In the Templatize Field Mapping dialog, you can either create a new template or update an existing one.
   
   • To create a new template, provide a name and scope for the template.
     • Site-wide templates are available in all repository mappings. Only TeamForge site administrators can create or modify them. These are useful, for example, when you have company-wide mapping rules, and you want any change in those rules to be reflected in all related field mappings.
     • Project-wide templates are specific to a TeamForge project. TeamForege project administrators will find them useful to set up several similar mappings with minor changes.
   • To update an existing template, select the one you want to change.
3. Click OK.
