Mapping Attempts

What This Is

Mapping Attempts are the automatic suggestions Pyle generates when it thinks a staged vendor item might match a real product.

They exist to speed up mapping review without forcing operators to create every mapping manually from scratch.

When You Would Use It

Use Mapping Attempts when you need to:

  • review automatic match suggestions
  • approve a good suggestion quickly
  • reject a bad suggestion
  • retry matching after data changes

Before You Start

Before you review Mapping Attempts, make sure:

  • the vendor already has staged catalog items
  • those items are not already mapped
  • you understand that a mapping attempt is only a suggestion until you accept it

How To Use It In The Admin

  1. Open a vendor record.
  2. Go to Mapping Attempts.
  3. Filter the list by the state you need:
    • in progress
    • to review
    • accepted
    • rejected
    • confidence level
    • match result
  4. Open the details when you need to inspect the suggestion more closely.
  5. Choose the next action:
    • accept
    • reject
    • retry
  6. Continue into the mapping workflow if you need to review the created mapping afterward.

What It Changes In The Storefront

Mapping Attempts do not affect the storefront by themselves.

Only accepted attempts matter downstream, because accepting an attempt creates the real mapping that later drives inventory sync.

Common Tasks

Accept a strong suggestion

Use this when the proposed product match is correct and you want to move quickly.

Reject a bad suggestion

Use this when the proposed match is wrong and should not create a real mapping.

Retry matching

Use this after changing the staged item, related rules, or other supporting data.

Rules, Limits, And Things To Watch

  • A mapping attempt is not the final mapping record.
  • You can only accept or reject attempts that are in the right review state.
  • A failed attempt does not create a real mapping.
  • Even an accepted attempt may still need you to review the resulting mapping later.

Troubleshooting

I do not see any mapping attempts

The item may already be mapped, invalid, or not eligible for attempt generation yet.

I accepted an attempt, but storefront availability still did not change

The accepted attempt only creates the mapping. Inventory still depends on the staged supply and later sync rules.

I cannot accept or reject an attempt

Check the attempt status. Only the right reviewable states allow those actions.
