Examining Mapped Fields
Once you have selected the point at which one data stream or data source will be mapped to
another, a dialog box opens for you to select fields for mapping or to ensur e that the sys tem default
mapping is correct. If essential fields have been set for the stream or data source and they are

through the Filter node unaltered , but note that you can map non-essential fields as well.
