Import into Lookup Hierarchy Multi-Value Field

Question

My source data contains two fields (Product ID, Product Notes). I need to map the Product Notes into a Hierarchy Lookup Field on main products table.  THe hierarchy table for product notes contains two text fields and both are display fields.  My source data for product notes contains a comma delimited list of values that only apply to one of the display fields of the Hiearchy table.
Example:
product1 |  1,5,10
product2 |  1,3
product3 |  1,6,13
How do I map and assign the multiple product notes to each product?

Answer 1

Hi Sowseel,
I do not understand your assumptions.
I have following tables:
Tablename: Product Notes
Table Type: Hierarchy
Display Fields: Note Number, Note Description
Unique Fields: Note Number
Key Mapping: No
Tablename: Products
Table Type: Main
Display Fields: Product Number
Key Mapping: Yes
The Product Notes table has following example entries already (comma delimitter indicates field seperation):
1, Description of product note 1
2, Description of product note 2
3, Description of product note 3
Notice there is no really hierarchy. This table type was used to have manual control of the order of the notes.
My import data is formated as follows:
Field1 Name = Product Number
Field2 Name = Product Notes
Field1 Value = XYZ
Field2 Value = 2,8,10
In import manager, the product notes field in my destination pane is shown as a heirarchy.  Selecting the root level shows destination values of the display fields for this lookup table (i.e. Note Number, Note Description).  However, my source data only contains a comma delimitted list of note numbers.  I do not understand how to map the values.
