Configuring Metadata Mapping
Metadata mapping is a critical component of data exchange if you are exchanging product data between two systems that are configured differently. Configuring this mapping prior to starting the data exchange cycles in a production environment is an important step of setting up the environment. You must thoroughly assess the data being exchanged and how the receiving system is setup. A complete understanding between the two entities exchanging data of the nature of the data and possible values of the configurable metadata is essential.
