In the context of Import Set processing, what is the primary role of Auto Map Matching Fields?

• A. Determine if Import Set field names match target table field names
• B. Validate data types of fields
• C. Map data values to default
• D. Log import results

Answer: (A)

Auto Map Matching Fields focuses on aligning fields from the imported data with fields on the target table by name. It scans the import set and the target table, automatically creating mappings for fields whose names match so that values flow into the correct destination columns without manual setup. This speeds up the import and reduces errors, because the data is routed to the right fields as long as the source and target names line up. Data type checks, value conversions, and applying default values happen during the transform process or subsequent steps, not during the initial field-name matching. If names don’t line up, you’d need to map those fields manually or adjust the mapping later. Logs and import results are handled by the import process itself, not by the auto-mapping step.
