I’ve done a lot with EDG but not that much with Composer. That said, if there are no headers then there is no schema-to-schema mapping possible and it’s all just up to your own logic AFAIK. If some cols have headers and others don’t in the same SS, then the logic is at the level of an individual row/cell rather than at the meta-level where there’s a “schema” based on column names.
