The mapping information is to be understood as a proposal. It has to be checked. Afterwards a definitive assignment (approval) can be made.

First, the projects "project.prj", "project2.prj" and "project4.prj" are edited in the Update Manager [Update manager].

In the Update Manager [Update manager], you can recognize a successful mapping by the fact that both the Old data record [Old dataset] column and the New data record [New dataset] column contain data in the Row assignment [Line mapping] dialog area.
