The default mapping option defines the default that Forge uses to handle source properties that have neither explicit nor implicit mappings. There are three possible settings.
To set the default mapping options:
Option | Description |
---|---|
Neither | Uncheck the option altogether to ignore source properties that do not have an explicit or implicit mapping defined. |
Properties | Check Property to create a mapping between the source property and an Endeca property. Forge does this by creating a new Endeca property that uses the same name and value as the source property and assigning it to the record. |
Dimensions | Check Dimension to create a mapping between the source property and a dimension. Forge does this by creating a new dimension, using the source property’s name. Forge uses the Auto Generate mode to populate the dimension with dimension values that match the source property’s values. |
