The settings in the Import tab include the following.
Gathering Data
You can toggle on/off gathering of Usage and/or Denials data from the file. Only applicable choices are shown; for example, if the file contains only Denials data, only the Denials toggle will be shown.
If the toggles are visible but are unavailable to enable, this is due to licensing issues (for example, your licensing does not allow for importing or there are not enough available user/host/server licenses to import the data without exceeded the limit). In such cases, a tooltip on the field(s) will indicate why the field is disabled (for example, "Import disabled due to reaching the license limit.")
Date Range
The Date Range is the entire range for the file by default. You may select a more limited range using the calendar (start/end dates are inclusive).
Click Reset to return the range to the original date range for the file.
Merge Policy
Select from the following merge policy options:
- Reject: If the imported data overlaps with existing data in License Statistics, the entire import will be canceled.
- Replace: If the imported data overlaps with existing data in License Statistics, the existing data will be replaced with the import data.
- Merge: If the imported data overlaps with existing data in License Statistics, the data will be merged to avoid duplicates. Applies to Denials only.
- Only Newer: If the imported data overlaps with existing data in License Statistics, only data newer than existing data will be imported.
