The Mapping feature of Apptivo enables users to map the fields present in a project with the tasks created in them. By this, the fields shown while creating tasks will automatically display the values of the mapped fields in the associated project.

Note: This feature is available in the Ultimate and Enterprise plans of Apptivo.
