Mapping temperature field

Hi all,

I'm simulating a hot rolling processes. So far I have simulated a single pass but I now want to model a second pass.
To do this I imported the deformed slab from my first odb as a part in my model for the second pass, I repositioned my
roll for the second pass and then I also want to import the temperature field of the deformed slab into my new model. This is were I am having problems. I tried to use an analytical field to map the NT11 field variabel of my first odb to my new model, but this isn't working. When running the job I get a warning that 'The mapper may have not mapped to all expected entities.
The default field value will be used for missed entities.' When then looking at the results I see that none of my values
have been mapped.

Obd with the values that have to be mapped:

Model to where the values have to be mapped:

For the first pass I had already done an air cooling simulation from which I mapped the output. So yes I have done this. It
seems to be more complicated in this case.

EDIT: So I found that the data is being mapped but to the wrong mesh. The temperature data from the slab is mapped to the roll. As seen below
