== Overview ==
This is an '''extremely''' important part of setting up a campaign.
Field mapping is the mechanism by which bxp software maps its data fields to the fields in your form. bxp software designates fields using its own nomenclature. e.g. strCDA_41_field_3_1. (Campaign database 41, field 1, subpart 3). In BE this represents the surname in a complex title block. Clearly, it’s easier for us to understand Surname so field mapping allows you to tell BE that strCDA_41_field_3_1 = Surname.
You can read more about how the concept works here. [[Understanding_Field_Mapping]]
All reports, searches and displays will use your name rather than the BE name which is why this part of the set-up is so important.
''' == Field Mapping – Manage'''==
This is where the Data Field, Database Question and the New Column Name are displayed.
'''== Field Mapping - Reset'''==
This allows you to reset the fields’ names to the defaults when the form was first built. NOTE, this action is irreversible!
