Importing Syndicated Data Files (End User)

Extracted files are transferred using Siebel Remote (as described in Siebel Remote and Replication Manager Administration Guide). After mobile users receive their extracted files, they must import the data into their local databases.

The process is described in the following procedure.

To import syndicated data files

1. Using Siebel Remote, synchronize your local database with extracted data files that have been routed to you. Extracted data files are received as attachment files.
2. Click the Import button and the extracted data files are downloaded to the \LOCAL\FILES folder of your hard drive.
3. After importing the extracted data files into your local database, delete the downloaded files from the \LOCAL\FILES folder.

NOTE:  Users may postpone downloading of extracted data files by turning off the Retrieved Published Files option in their synchronization setup. Whether or not the extracted data files are downloaded, header information is transferred to the mobile client during the synchronization session. This information appears in the Syndicated Data Files view.
