Creating Field Mappings


Administrators can map individual fields between the Siebel and PIM domains. This mapping determines the fields in the Siebel application and Microsoft Exchange Server that are mapped to each other.

Administrators can turn synchronization on or off for each individual mapped field.

NOTE:  In SSSE, some editable Exchange fields are mapped to Siebel pick list fields. If data for these fields is entered in Microsoft, typographical errors and case mismatches can cause synchronization problems. To minimize this possibility, you can set the Siebel pick list fields to be case insensitive. For information about enabling field-specific case insensitivity, see Applications Administration Guide.

The following procedure describes how to create a field mapping.

To create a new field mapping

  1. Navigate to Administration - PIM Server Integration, and then Domain Map.
  2. In the Domain Map list, select a record.
  3. In the Field Map list, click New, and then fill in the fields for the new record using the following values.
