Import Data (Item List Sort Orders)

You use this window to import a list of Item List Sort Orders from a Microsoft Excel file that you exported previously.

The import process:

  • Adds lines for item list sort orders that do not already exist.
  • Updates values for item list sort orders that already exist. (Values from the import file overwrite existing values.)
  • Does not delete item list sort orders that exist in the list, but not in the import file. The import process leaves existing lines intact if they do not exist in the import file.

Note: The file format must be valid before you can import the list of sort orders into the Edit Item List Sort Order window. For example, you must use the same columns as the exported values, any rows that you added in Excel must be complete, and the sort order name must not exceed 8 alphanumeric characters.

To import a list of sort orders, you click the [Import] button in the Edit Item List Sort Order window.

When the import process is complete, the Import Data window displays a [View Log] button. Click the button to view a report of the import details, which includes the number of records processed, updated, and added, as well as a list of any errors encountered during the import.
