I have set up a scheduler and it is working fine with the table having same column names as in source table( and the column names in the data in kafka topic). The thing is, the actual aim is to put the kafka data ( from one table) to another table having different column names. How to tell scheduler( which is fetching data from kafka) to map columns. Can i even do it with scheduler? What are the other options?

You can achieve what you want using flex tables I guess.
1) load data into flex table using scheduler
2) create your destination table with desired columns and copy the data to your destination table using the steps in the below link
