When selecting Create Mapping file in the RE FE Extract Tool a mapping file is required

When selecting Create Mapping file in the RE FE Extract Tool a mapping file is required. Why is a file required if there is an option to create one?

If you leave the use mapping file field blank, and choose Create Mapping file, you get an error saying, 'No mapping file! Please enter a mapping file or choose to ignore mapping file.

If you then click the magnifying glass to select a mapping file, nothing happens.

Answer:

This issue will be addressed in FIMS 14.76.

A mapping file is required so extract knows what to create. Now, a mapping file will be auto populated when field is blank, and user selected a folder for accounting part of export.
