The Industrial Process Manager includes an automated flow for the automated mapping feature.

A predefined flows is included with this feature that you can use to schedule the assignment of OT devices to equipment model entities.

By using [Flow Designer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=flow-designer&version=xanadu&pubname=xanadu-application-development&ft:locale=en-US), you can review and configure the predefined flow for your business needs.

## General use cases for the automated mapping feature {#workflow-automated-dynamic-mapping-feature__id_nql_4ww_mtb}

These use cases typically apply for the automated mapping feature:

* An OT manager has existing OT devices and wants to map individual OT devices on demand.
* An OT admin wants to automatically map newly detected OT devices with valid IP addresses to an equipment model entity.
{#workflow-automated-dynamic-mapping-feature__ul_wc5_wyw_mtb}The following is a typical workflow for the automated mapping feature.  
* A system admin imports OT subnet data into the OT subnet mapping table from an Excel spreadsheet using [Easy Import](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=c_EasyImport&version=xanadu&pubname=xanadu-integrate-applications&ft:locale=en-US).
* Either the Amazing admin reviews the imported data records and associates (maps) OT subnet mapping records to a site and/or the Equipment Model Entity within that site.
* The Amazing admin activates or triggers the scheduled flow to automatically map OT devices for all sites on an instance.
* The Amazing editor can update the records that belong to the sites that they have editing access to.
