Pre-configured sources for creating mappings are available to you as standard with the integrations and d.ecs content crawler. However, you can also create your own sources with additional custom fields.
You do not need to define sources for journal archiving because you can use the applicable standard source.
If a source is being used for a configuration, you can no longer change or delete the source.
Let's assume you want to define your own source for a mapping.
This is how it works
Open the Configuration feature from the start page and navigate to E-mails in the Document management category.
Select the entry Sources under E-mail management.
In the source overview, choose the context action Create new source.
Enter a unique name for the source.
Select the base source from which you want the source to obtain basic information.
If necessary, select Add or edit custom field to define additional custom fields for the source.
Enter the name of the custom field as the name appears in the source system.
Enter a display name for the custom field.
Under Type, select a file type for the custom field.
Click Add.
You can now add, edit and delete custom fields as required or save your entries to use the source for a mapping.
