Fields Mapping
Currently, Fields Mapping is exclusively available for the Leads and Opportunities objects to transfer data to the Students and Offers objects respectively, during the conversion process.
What is Fields Mapping?
Fields Mapping allows you to automatically transfer the data between two objects, a source and a target, during the conversion process.

Considerations for Fields Mapping
Fields Mapping Compatibility
Fields of the same type can be mapped to each other. For example, Lead's Mobile Phone (Phone type field) can be mapped to Student's Overseas Mobile (also Phone type field).
Each field to be connected through Fields Mapping must be in Active status.
Documents fields can’t be mapped.
Read Only fields can’t be mapped.
Picklists can be mapped to Text fields on the target object. The selected option from the source object will be written in the corresponding Text field of the target object.
