This is an EXTREMELY important part of the System Champions role when setting up a campaign.
1 Field Mapping – Manage
Here is where the Data Field, Database question and the New Column Name are displayed within a particular campaign.
- The New Column Name field can be edited, and it is very important to make sure each field in this column have unique names.
- For example – if there is a Complex Address Field in the campaign – you must distinguish between each field in this block – Address Line 1, Address Line 2, Address Line 3, in the New Column Name, as opposed to Address, Address, and Address – which would be incorrect.
- Always go to Field Mapping – Manage after building a campaign to ensure that the column names are mapped correctly to the question, and there are no duplicates.
- This is important for importing a data file, for example an excel spreadsheet.
- The headings in the Excel spreadsheet to be imported must match the column names in the New Column Name in the Database - Field Mapping section of the system, so they can be added to the system successfully.
2 Field Mapping - Reset
- This allows you to reset the fields names back to the defaults when the campaign was first built.
- This action is irreversible so be very careful when doing this action.
