Mapping contact information fields for synchronization and contact lookups

You can map contact information fields from the email applications on users' computers to the contact list fields on the BlackBerry devices. The information in the fields in the email applications synchronizes to the fields on the BlackBerry devices. You can create the following types of field mappings on the BlackBerry Enterprise Server:

global field mappings: apply to all user accounts in a BlackBerry Domain

user field mappings: apply to specific user accounts

You can map up to four fields that users define in the contact information on their computers to their BlackBerry devices. When users request a remote contact lookup from the contact list, the fields that you configure display on BlackBerry devices.
