Applymap on the same field Multiple Times

Is there a limit to which how many times I can do an applymap on the same field.

For eg. I have main table

Main:

ID,

Name,

Order date,

Attribute1

Vendor:

ID,

Vendor_Name

Dept:

ID,

Dept_Name

Inv:

ID,

qty

so if I create mapping table for 3 diff tables and applymap on the same table 'Main' 3 times to 'map' on the same field, i.e. ID, will it work.? I know a better way wud be to let the tables have automatic connection as they have coomon field "ID". but just wanted to get your ideas.

Thanks

Yes, you can applymap how many times you need, with different maps

load

ApplyMap('map1',field) as dept,

ApplyMap('map2',field) as company,

ApplyMap('map3',field) as field3,

ApplyMap('map4',field) as field4,
