About data mappings
Mapping definitions specify:
- Where each mapped data point comes from in the source InForm study.
- The CONTEXT data appended to all Clintrial study data panels.
- The target panel and item in the Clintrial database that corresponds to each data point.
- Optional, supplemental text about the design of the components of the Clintrial mapping definition.
- Master-detail relationships.
- Subset items and values.
- Block key and page key values.
When deploying a study from the Central Designer software, you can create multiple mapping definitions and save them. Then, you can specify which set to use when:
- Deploying a package from the Central Designer software.
- Creating a synchronization connection in CIS Administration.
For information about using the Central Designer software to generate CIS-specific mapping definitions, see Working with mappings from the Central Designer software.
