Unfortunately, it transitions to whatever seat UA puts you in. There is no automatic mapping. Sometimes they will respect your initial selection, others it will a random reassignment. Good idea to watch these reservations pretty closely so you can get on it quickly if they swap and give you a crappy seat.
