Mapping tab - Properties of Address Evaluator window
The
Address Evaluator takes the results from several locators and compares those results to records in a
database. If the locator values match the records in the database, the
Address Evaluator returns matching records.
The Mapping tab is used to map the database fields to the locator results. This is done by using the table to assign a Locator Field and a Field Type to each field in the database.

This group contains a table of database fields. The following columns are listed:
