Mapping of Vendor Fields to Business Component Fields

For each vendor who supports data cleansing or data matching, there are field mappings that specify:

• The fields that are used in data cleansing and data matching
• The mapping between the Siebel application field names and the corresponding vendor field names

There are mappings for each supported business component and data quality operation (DeDuplication and Data Cleansing). There are preconfigured field mappings for SSA, see Preconfigured Field Mappings for SSA.

You can configure the field mappings for a business component to include new fields or modify them to map to different fields. There might also be additional configuration required for particular third-party software.   

NOTE:  You must contact the specific vendor for the list of fields they support for data cleansing and data matching and to understand the effect of changing field mappings.
