In addition, an icon indicating whether the field is required is displayed
adjacent to each field name in the Name column. The following table lists
the possible options and details on how the level is determined for each
field in Quality Center.
Attributes Indicates whether the field is read-only. You cannot create a
mapping to a field that is read-only. The following attribute
values are available:
➤ R. The field can be read but cannot be written to.
➤ RW. The field can be both read and written to.
Mapped Indicates whether the field is currently included in a mapping to
a field in the other endpoint or a constant value is mapped to the
field.
Icon Level Description
Mandatory The field is mandatory for the endpoint. You must map
this field as the destination of a mapping from a field in
the other endpoint or map a constant value to the field.
A mandatory field that is unmapped causes an error
during an integrity check if entity creation is enabled
for the endpoint.
For a Quality Center endpoint, a field is Mandatory in
the Synchronizer if it is a required field in
Quality Center but not given a default value in
Quality Center when a record is created.
