Configure Import Data

There are several import options available on the Import Data screen.

In the Import Data screen,

1. Select Clear my line items and import the data: This removes all of the data from your GLSU template before importing the data.

   or

   Select Import the data appending it to the existing line items: This setting appends the imported data to the end of your GLSU template. It is useful when you have two or more files that are formatted exactly the same but contain different sets of data; e.g., one file per week, per company code, etc.

2. Select Import ALL records: The system will import as many records as the file contains.

   or

   Select Import only a subset of records: Enter the number of records to load. This is useful when testing your map all the way to actually importing a small subset of the records in the file. Once everything looks good, use the Import ALL records and Clear my line items and import the data settings together to clear the template and import all of the data records.

3. Select Import and Exit to start the import. The process bar and record counter will show the import progress.

Note: Make sure you have the sheet active that you want to import the data into. The name of the sheet will show into the caption of the Map Field screen.
