Map values with a dictionary in Visual workspace
Replace each spelling with its approved value using a reviewed dictionary, and decide what happens to unmapped values.
When to use it
Categories with many spellings for one meaning.
How
Add step → Rules → Map values. One pair per line (from => to). Choose whether unmapped values are kept or quarantined.
Map 7 values in channel (unmapped → unmapped_channel)
- Missing values pass through unchanged; require a value first if needed.
Pitfalls
- Keeping unmapped values unchanged.
- Mapping before normalizing.
- Guessing mappings for unseen spellings.
