5.13.13.2. Create new mapping

5.13.13.2.1. Configure mapping strategy

5.13.13.2.1.1. Levenshtein strategy
5.13.13.2.1.2. eClass upgrade strategy

Directly after opening of the dialog box the right side is still empty.

When you want to create a new mapping, then perform a double-click on the desired "gray" class. The dialog box (the wizard) Map class system opens.

	Note
Does it matter, whether eClass 4 is mapped to eClass5 or the other way around? Yes, it does matter. This shall be explained with a small example: eClass 4 class 01-02-03-99 has been split in: eClass 5 class 01-02-03-01 eClass 5 class 01-02-03-02 eClass 5 class 01-02-03-03 eClass 5 class 01-02-03-04 Then a mapping from eClass 5 to eClass 4 could work automatically (all projects, which use one of the four eClass 5 classes are classified to the one eClass 4 class). But a mapping from eClass 4 to eClass 5 would not work, because the mapper does not know, which of the four classes should be taken. In order to solve theses cases, the mappings from eClass 5 -> eClass 4 and eClass 4 -> eClass 5 are two different mappings.

Note

Does it matter, whether eClass 4 is mapped to eClass5 or the other way around?

Yes, it does matter. This shall be explained with a small example:

eClass 4 class 01-02-03-99 has been split in:

eClass 5 class 01-02-03-01
eClass 5 class 01-02-03-02
eClass 5 class 01-02-03-03
eClass 5 class 01-02-03-04

Then a mapping from eClass 5 to eClass 4 could work automatically (all projects, which use one of the four eClass 5 classes are classified to the one eClass 4 class).

But a mapping from eClass 4 to eClass 5 would not work, because the mapper does not know, which of the four classes should be taken.

In order to solve theses cases, the mappings from eClass 5 -> eClass 4 and eClass 4 -> eClass 5 are two different mappings.

In the following sections you can find information on the single dialog pages of the wizard.
