Importing Data

Importing data allows you to:

• • Quickly update the application with data
  • Use data from other sources for trending and analysis

Any administrator can import data as needed.

To import a data file:

1. 1. Go to the Admin menu and select Import <data type> under the area into which you want to import data. (For metrics data imports, go to the Add New menu instead.)
      
      
   2. Click New Import.
      
      
   3. Select a file Template.
   4. Click Preview if you want to download a copy of the template to review the template structure.
   5. Under File Selection, choose the file you want to import.
   6. Click Import Data. The import page redisplays and reflects the current status of the import.
      
      
   7. Review the imported file.
