When imported into a project mappings are automatically applied to the project. Mappings that match data in the schedule are editable in the appHowever, some mappings may be missing information that is required to utilize thier classifications. These mappings will not apply objects to tasks. Users may edit the mappings after adding necessary information.

If data associated with an imported mapping does not match a task in the schedule it will not have a status indicator. These mappings cannot be edited but are retained when the file is rexported. Allowing the user to build a database importing and rexporting an XML after additional mappings have been added.

Mappings that match schedule data may have different statuses. depending on the status a different action may be required for the mapping to be applied.

The mapping did not apply because it is missing zones, levels, or parameters that do not exist in the project as defined by the classification mapping. This mapping needs to be edited and reapplied.

The mapping did not apply because, with the given configuration, it failed to assign any objects to tasks.

Objects are successfully assigned to tasks.

Statuses that do not apply are always unchanged if rexported. This allows the user to build a database of mappings that are associated with different file and schedule structures.
