Mapping Editor—Field descriptions

Field Description
Grid section -
Title Name of the data set.
Description Description of the data set.
Alias Alias for the data set. If an alias is present, it is used as the CDD table name in CDD mappings and as the Clintrial panel name in CIS mappings. If an alias is not present, the RefName is used as the column header. Because RefNames must be unique throughout a study, you must create an alias if the RefName is used by another study object. Data set aliases must be unique within a mapping.

Note:

Checking for RefName and alias uniqueness is case insensitive; for example, the names BP and bp are considered identical.
