Set Up Field Mappings of Import/Export Files
Extensiv Network Manager is able to handle files from your 3PLs and drop-shippers through field mappings. Each field in a 3PL or drop-shipper's file (containing order, shipping, and inventory information, among others, and sent to and received by Order Manager through FTP) is mapped to a corresponding field in Order Manager.
To set up your field mappings, follow the procedure below.
- Navigate to Order Routing. Confirm the company by clicking the dropdown next to Currently Viewing.
- Go to Settings.
- Click Warehouse.
- Click the wrench icon to the right of the warehouse, then click Field Mappings.
- Make sure that the Date Format is set to the format that is used by the 3PL.
In Network Manager, Month, MM, is always in upper case.
 - Navigate to Sales Channels and making your way down to Country Names.
 - The left Sales Channel column contains the field names found in Network Manager.
 - The right Field Mappings column contains the field names used by the 3PL. Click anywhere on the grid and enter the field names used by the 3PL. Make sure that the Field Mapping names match those that are used by the 3PL to avoid any errors when importing/exporting files.
Click the Save Mappings button at the bottom after completing each section. Otherwise, your edits will not be saved.
 - Click Save Changes.
