Which map setting should be used to create a list of data errors (including error codes and data values) during map execution?
The correct answer is A. data audit. The data audit map setting records data errors encountered during execution, capturing both the error codes and the specific data values that triggered each error.

Why each option
The data audit map setting records data errors encountered during execution, capturing both the error codes and the specific data values that triggered each error.
Data audit is specifically designed to log data-level validation errors during map execution, storing structured records that include the error code (such as E01 or E07) and the actual data value that caused the failure. This makes it the correct setting when the goal is a post-execution error list with full detail for each failed data element.
Input trace captures the raw input data stream for debugging purposes but does not produce a structured list of error codes and offending data values.
Output trace records the translated output data stream, not the errors and data values that failed validation during processing.
Execution audit tracks map execution flow and performance metrics, not individual data errors with their associated codes and values.
Summary trace provides a high-level count or overview of map execution results without the per-error detail of codes and data values.
