  2. Type of Data Source Used: Here, you need to choose the type of data source that will be utilized in this process.
  3. Component Mapped with Primary Key Data Source: This component will be linked to the primary key of the chosen data source. The component that’s mapped will also act as a trigger to select the data source when creating or working on tasks. The information in this field will be automatically populated after you map the component in point number one.

  2. Reserved Key “Item Name” and Text Field Type: Please note that the reserved key “Item Name” can only be mapped with a data source that has a Text field type. Ensure that you correctly map it according to the required field type.
  3. Reserved Key “Item Qty” and Number Field Type: Similarly, the reserved key “Item Qty” can only be mapped with a data source that has a Number field type. Make sure to select the appropriate field type when mapping “Item Qty.”
