What is Key Field Mapping?

Key Field Mapping is essential for linking the Asset attributes from the Form Builder with the Asset attributes that are pre-configured in the SummitAI Application. The Key Field Mapping ensures the discovered data is populated in the appropriate fields for the Asset Category.

Example: The Serial Number of an Asset identified through Discovery will be saved in the Serial Number field created using the Form Builder if Key Field Mapping is done appropriately.

To do Key Field Mapping:

  1. Select Asset > Configuration > AssetMasters > Key Field Mapping. The KEY FIELD MAPPING page is displayed.
