Why are there items appearing in the source mapping of an action that are not present in the LIS
Why are there items appearing in the source mapping of an already existing import action that are not present in the Line Item Subset?
I have updated the LIS and still in source mapping I can see items which are not present in the LIS.

Yes, this is done this way just in case the old items appear in the view and Anaplan could know what to do with it straight ahead.

Mark these items as unmapped in the import settings and save the import. Then open the import again and they should disappear.

Already ignored unmapped. But still see items which are not present in LIS in the mapping tab.
If I check it in the Saved View i dont see it in the source0 -
The items you want to disappear should not be mapped to anything or marked ignore. Remove all mentions next to these items.

Since I am updating existing Import action I think its showing the older mapped items also. When i tried with the same saved view to create new action I dont see those items.

It is not that weird, @CommunityMember125352 . It is just overcomplicated for your specific use case. But it is flexible. Let me explain.
The purpose of this behavior is for the cases when the list of items you want to import is dynamic and may change with each run due to some conditions you may set. For example, filters on this line item subset. You may still need custom mapping for the list but not always all items are imported. That is why you need all of them to be mapped no matter if they are sent in the current source view.
You have to know that these extra items you may see in the mapping will not affect your import when it runs as they will never appear in the run itself - so no errors should be there regarding those.

Yes, there are no errors you mentioned it correctly. There are time filters on the view but not on the LIS. So ideally it should show the items which are present in the LIS, since we can update this LIS at any time it looks like Anaplan is keeping it in that existing action but when we create a new action it's not present there.
