DSO needs the mapping with same name to be present on server B which was used to transfer record from server A. Where DSO transfers data with ownership on destination server it also fills a special field "from mapping" on the transferred record.This field will be later used in DSO update/return operation to get the DSO mapping name.
By the way, you don't need to configure DSO return filter to get the updated values back from master destination record to source record. System automatically takes care of updating the values back to source when you modify destination master record. No need to write an explicit filter for this. You only need to make sure you have the mapping existing on the destination server which DSO can use to do the DSO update. DSO return operation can be used to return the ownership back to the source record.
