Customize the mapping
Dynamics 365 Sales comes with an out-of-the-box business card control that defines the mapping of what information from the business card goes in which fields of the Contact or Lead forms. If you have custom fields on your Contact or Lead form and you want the data from the business card to be populated in these fields, edit the default mappings of the business card control.
Important
