# Create a new mapping

When you click on *Create new mapping* the Mapping pane will appear. Give a name to the mapping that will provide a useful reference for the future. For example, give the name of the dataset, the schema being mapped to and the day’s date.

![Creating a new mapping](/files/-MAQwGQocsWgt5m8CBQs)

Select the schema that you want to use to transform your dataset from the pull-down list. In the CARARE MINT you can choose between mapping to LIDO, the CARARE schema or to EDM.

{% hint style="info" %}
Note: You can enable automatic mappings at this stage. This can be useful if your dataset broadly conforms to the schema being mapped to. If you do select this option, you can edit any mappings that are created in the next stage.
{% endhint %}
