When you map a non-leaf source element to a non-leaf target element, the Auto Map feature assists you by automatically matching the child source elements to their corresponding target elements. Auto Map looks at the element names, types, and paths to come up with the correct mappings. Auto map can also insert xsl:if statements for optional nodes, depending on your preferences.

The Auto Map feature is available only when a target schema is used. You can use Auto Map in both Map View and XSLT View.
