Multiple mappings to one field

Hello

I have 2 fields, costc and geography, that i would like to map to a new field 'region'

The problem that I have is that the field 'region' has to be unique in the load.  How can I apply to the 2 mappings to the one field 'region'.  Is this possible?

Many thanks

Paul

map_region:

mapping

LOAD

      costc,

     region

FROM

[..\..\01_SOURCE_DATA\XLS\DM\europeorus.xlsx]

(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

map_geography:

mapping

LOAD

      geography,

     region

FROM

[..\..\01_SOURCE_DATA\XLS\DM\dmregionkpi.xlsx]

(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

DM:

LOAD

    *,

    applymap ('map_geography',geography,'NOT_FOUND') as region_desc,

    applymap ('map_region',costc,'NOT_FOUND') as region_desc,
