Mapping fields
If you want to import data from a drawing into Planon, such as space numbers and descriptions, you need to determine where this information can be found in the drawing. At the Field mapping selection level you can access drawing information and select the Planon field that should be filled with this information.
 | • If you want to use an auto-generated value from Planon ProCenter (via a default setting in Field Definer), the field mapping on this field should be removed. • If you want to import the area and perimeter of a polyline that is stored explicitly in the drawing (for example, in the attribute of a block), instead of a value which is calculated from the area and perimeter of the polyline, the field mapping should be done on these fields. |
Procedure
1. Go to > > .
2. On the action panel, click Add.
3. In the data section, complete the relevant fields. For a description of these fields, refer to Field mapping fields.

The business object fields are mapped with the entities of the CAD drawing. Repeat the steps with all the business objects you have added to the drawing definition.
 | Ensure that you enter correct values for the fields XData application name, Group code, and Occurrence. If you enter an incorrect value, error message will not be displayed and data will not be imported. |
