What to review first
- Rows marked Needs review, Unmapped, Manual, or Override.
- Dropdowns that depend on secondary lists.
- Boolean fields that came from InfoPath checkboxes.
- Person-like fields that may need email, display name, or claims behavior.
- Fields with repeated or generic captions, such as multiple optional sections.
When to use override
Use a mapping override when Form Migrator picked the wrong SharePoint column or when two possible matches are close enough that the generator should not guess. The override should change only the target column, control type, required behavior, or builder note. Do not rename the source InfoPath binding.
When to exclude a field
- The field is a hidden state flag used only by old InfoPath show/hide logic.
- The field is a duplicate caption or unbound label.
- The field belongs to a secondary list screen that will be rebuilt separately.
- The target SharePoint list no longer stores that value.
