External Mapping fields

  • Entity Type: Indicates the type of entity in Transportation Manager for this mapping entry.
  • External Source: Indicates the external source for this mapping.
  • Entity ID: (Optional) If populated, logically identifies a specific instance of the selection made in the Entity Type field. When Entity Type is “Domain Table”, this value identifies the specific domain name.

    • Note: In cases where more than one instance matches the Entity ID value entered here, this mapping applies to all matches. This could be the case for Shipping Locations where multiple rows have the same Location ID, but different Location Type.

  • Supplemental Entity ID: Used for Entity Type mappings to “Domain Table”, this field identifies the specific domain value for the domain name specified in Entity ID.
  • Field Name: Specifies the external field for this mapping. See INTTRA External Mappings, TransVoyant External Mappings, PC*Miler External Mappings, Telogis External Mappings, and Pallet Rounding Rules using External Mappings.
  • Fixed Value: Specifies the fixed value string applied to this mapping.
  • Entity Column: Specifies the column name from the source entity specified in Entity Type.

Note: Only one of Fixed Value or Entity Column can be specified.
