Auto populate | Indicates whether to automatically populate the attribute if a single match against the valid set is found. For example, if the option is set and a valid set like this exists: Name, Address Fred, 2 Fore Street Fred, 1 New Road Jim, 10 North Road Then the attribute for Jim would be auto-populated, since only one matching address is defined in the valid set. Entering Jim in the Name field will cause the Address field to be auto-populated with 10 North Road. | Optional. Only applicable to multi-column valid sets.
