Import Wizard - Completing

In the final wizard screen you have the option to save your selections in a "Record layout file". This layout file enables you to perform another import using the same selections as the current import. Having a record layout file significantly streamlines the import process.

  1. [Optional] Specify a filename to save your current selections in a record layout file.
  2. Click Import. A message prompt can appear under the following scenarios:

    • If you used an existing record layout file with this import and changed certain settings:

      • Click Yes if you want to replace the existing layout file with the new changes. The import proceeds with your new settings.
      • Click No if you want to keep your existing layout file. The import proceeds with your new settings but does not save them to the layout file.
      • Click Cancel to return to the final wizard screen.
    • If there are duplicate entries in the import list, select what you want to do.

This completes the import process. After the import:

  • If there are any errors during the import, a message prompts you to view the import log. Continue to this log to view any errors. Correct any errors and perform the import again.

  • If your import was successful, check the Time file to ensure the integrity of your data. You can view your data from the Setup menu in Time or applicable reports.\
  • The import log file is stored in the same data folder where your Time file is located (C:/Program Files/CaseWare Time/Data_File/ImportLog/).
