Import All - Import Mode Preserved?

[Former Member]

Hello,

We are planning to use the import all option to do a mass transport from our test system to the QA system. Few questions:

We are aware that the import sequence will be preserved with the import all option. However, we are not sure if the import mode ("Overwrite Original") will also be preserved. Can some one clarify?

Do we need to import transport requests with different import modes separately (manually) or will the import all option take care of this also?

Thanks and Regards,

Reena

Hi Reena,

The import mode ("Overwrite Original") will not be preserved. If you use mass import and click the mass import button, you will prompted with a screen named "start import" just like the one when using single import. You have three options to select:

Select All Requests for Later Import

Overwrite Originals

Overwrite objects in Unconfirmed Repairs

So you still have the chance to select "Overwrite Originals" import mode.

But it is not possible for you to select different import mode for every tranport request seperately. If you select one import mode, it will be active for all transport requests.

With Best Regards
