Select a data map

1. Select a data map to tell the Import Data wizard how to organize your imported data into the right columns and fields in Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises).

   Select the default data map to let the wizard automatically map your data, or select a data map to match the type of information you're importing.

   The following tables help you decide which data map to use.

2. Click Next.

System Data Maps	When to Use
Default (Automatic Mapping)	Recommended. Use when you want the wizard to map the imported data to the columns and fields in Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises) automatically. If the wizard can't determine how to map your data, you'll have an opportunity to map it manually later. Important: Import files can only contain one type of data, such as contacts, leads, accounts, or cases. Also, the column headings in the source file must match exactly with the field names in Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises).
For Generic Contact and Account Data	Use when the import file contains contacts or accounts.

Data Maps for Salesforce	When to Use
For Contact and Account Report Export	Use this map when your import file contains contacts or accounts from Salesforce.
For Full Data Export	Use this map when your import file is exported from Salesforce using Full Data Export.
For Report Export	Use this map when your import file is exported from Salesforce using Report Export.

Data Maps for Microsoft Outlook Business Contact Manager	When to Use
For Microsoft Outlook 2010 with Business Contact Manager	Use this map when your import file contains data from Microsoft Outlook 2010 with Business Contact Manager.

Custom Maps(optional)	When to Use
