This step is valid for reports that are being created from a template only.  When using a template report you must provide the wizard with values for certain labels that may appear in the report.  Templates also have custom headers/footers that reference certain columns from the query.  Since the template cannot assign a column name; you must provide that mapping in this step.

In the sample above, you are setting the *Report_Title Mapping Key* to the *Product Line Report*.

There are three different types of mappings.  A label mapping is a straight text replacement used for display purposes only.  An item or detail mapping is used to map a column that appears in the items section of the report.  A group mapping is used to setup report groups.  When the report groups are mapped, the wizard automatically updates the report to use the desired columns as groups.
