Populate POJO from Excel row

Question

I am using Apache POI to read an Excel file having many columns. I have a POJO in which there is a field for each column in Excel sheet.

How do I populate my POJO with values from Excel achieving minimum cyclomatic complexity?

I had implemented really crude approach of having switch..case for populating my POJO, but this results in tight coupling and gives rise to high cyclomatic complexity, giving below my implementation for reference (this is I feel very dirty implementation) :

    // Iterate over cells in a row
    for (Cell cell : row) {
        cellValue = getCellValue(cell);

        if (cellValue == null) {
        continue;
        }

        // Populate model
        data = populateModel(data, cell.getColumnIndex(), cellValue);
    }

called method:

    /*
     * Populates pojo
     */
    private MyData populateModel(MyData data, int columnIndex, Object cellValue) {
    switch (columnIndex) {
        case 0:
        data.setAccount((long) cellValue);
        break;
        case 1:
        data.setDocNumber((long) cellValue);
        break;
        case 2:
        data.setType((String) cellValue);
        break;
        // more cases for subsequent excel columns
        default:
        // do nothing
       }
    return data;
    }
