The added transformations can be edited or removed at any time, see below.
NOTE: If you are adding transformations to an existing profile with mappings in place and choose to use the Rename field transformation you will see the message as shown in the picture below.

This can easily be fixed by clicking the Remove Invalid Mapped Fields button and map the field to the correct field.
THE OUTPUT RESULTS
...
For our import, we have chosen to add a field Code with a fixed value 123.
The result can be seen on the Configure fields page.
Append text value
The “Append text value” transformation allows for prepending and appending text to field values.

The Address field from the Import file will also be used for the postal address. This can be achieved by choosing the Copy Field transformation.
The result can be viewed on the Summary page. The Address column from the import file can be used twice.
Current date time
This transformation can be used to fill a field with the current date and time.
In this example, we will fill a user-defined field with the latest update by DataBridge.
First, choose the Transform 'Current date time' and fill in a field name.
The next step is to map the new field to a SuperOffice field. In this example, we use a User Defined Field called 'DataBridge Import Date'.
After running the Import job, the current date and time are filled in in the Udef of SuperOffice.
