# 3. Advanced settings to customize the feed 

### A. Mapping and Rules 
Both of these functions can be used to add missing required data, resolve errors/warnings or optimize your feed. However, Rules gives you greater flexibility and control over your product data. Let's see the difference between the two functions.

* [Mapping](https://socialhead.crisp.help/en/article/how-to-use-field-mapping-to-optimize-your-feed-z24btd/) allows you to modify or assign the value of a product field and apply this value to all of your products. Go to the **Field Mapping** tab to assign information that you want.

![](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/c/b/9/2/cb92164b6e8ef000/5_1xalbbn.png)

* Meanwhile, [Rules](https://socialhead.crisp.help/en/article/how-set-to-rule-and-extract-rule-help-to-add-missing-data-fix-errors-and-optimize-your-feed-1c7qbba/) allow you to modify or assign a value to only a specific product group by conditions. Go to the **Field Mapping** tab > click **Add Rule** at the Field that you want.

* **Hourly:** You can set a daily submit frequency, the minimum is every 3 hours and the maximum is every 12 hours starting from a specific time. You can also choose the time zone.

*For example, we choose the frequency of **Every 6 hours**, starting from **04:44 PM** and the timezone of **(GMT -04:00)**. It means your feed will be submitted from the app to Google Merchant/Facebook Catalog at 04:44 PM of the time zone GMT -04:00. The feed will be submitted again at 10:44 AM and so on.*

### D. Metafield

Whenever you update metafield values such as SEO Title, SEO Description, Custom Labels, Age Group, and others—Shopify does not automatically notify us of these changes. However, you can manually sync the updated metafields to FeedHub by clicking 'Manually Sync Metafields. 

![](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/c/b/9/2/cb92164b6e8ef000/2_1589not.png)

Metafields will appear in FeedHub under **Source Management** at **Mapping** tab. Then click to **Add system field** to map updated metafield to Feedhub. 

![](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/c/b/9/2/cb92164b6e8ef000/1_1pobbew.png)

In the popup window, select the metafield you want to map after it was synced to the system.
