Data Mapping
The Data Mapping feature provides the ability to view and manage all your mapped data of all your import activities.
What is Data Mapping?
Data Mapping issues are caused when the data value from the source file does not match the required data value in the IAF CertSearch database, See the example below:
Source
The actual data value that exists from your source file, that is not recognized by the system.
Target
The data value defined in the IAF CertSearch database.
Tips:
To minimize data upload issues, we recommend you add data mapping before importing your data. This way you can eliminate interruption during the import process. To know more about adding data mapping, click here.
