Map the Catalogue Field to its corresponding Source Field. Same as the above behaviour, you can choose a suggested Source Field or click +Add a new Source Field to add a new field.

Enter a description for easy identification.

Choose one of the following as the Data Type:

Object, List of Objects and list types such as List of String, List of Integer or List of Double are not supported for this category.Wherever you use a field that is enriched with NCE data downstream, a drop-down lists all the NCE fields joined to it, so you pick the exact NCE field you want.5
