A column can be matched to a default field or a custom field.

You can also choose to exclude columns to be imported during mapping.

Import subtasks

  2. For the subtask row, enter the subtask ID in the ID column, the parent work item's ID in the Parent ID column, and 'Subtask' in the Work Type column.
