5. When you're done, click Add, then Save.

Creating inbound-only or outbound-only mappings

Note that you can configure separate value mappings for each direction (inbound or outbound). This also allows you to map values in a one-to-many relationship. Simply create two records for the same fields, one for each direction and then proceed with configuring the value mappings.

For example:

For inbound-only mapping:
