Attribute mapping helps you define the relationship between attributes belonging to a data table and any of the following components:
-
group
-
part
-
commodity code
-
ident code
-
table details
-
commodity code
-
ident
-
specification code
The deeper the level, the higher the priority. For instance, mapping in combination with a commodity part has priority over a mapping where only the commodity group is assigned.
Attribute mapping can be data table dependent or data table independent.
If a data table is added to an attribute, it is considered to be a data table dependent mapping.
Attribute mapping is classified into the following two categories:
-
Component mapping
-
Specification mapping
