# Step 3 - Match the External Values to Paradigm Values

1. After mapping the fields to match with the Paradigm fields, some values of the fields being mapped need also to be matched with Paradigm values. e.g. the course type, in your source file the values were entered in uppercase, e.g. “**COURSEWORK** and **RESEARCH**” while in Paradigm, it should be “**Coursework** and **Research**”; another example would be from **Course Level**, some source values were entered as “**UNDERGRAD**” while in Paradigm it’s “**Undergraduate**”, etc.

{% hint style="info" %}
**NOTE**:

Paradigm will detect values that are entered differently (in lowercase or uppercase) from Paradigm’s default (defined) or existing values.
{% endhint %}
