To Import a Data Type or Variant

1. In the Projects window, expand the main master index project.

2. Right-click Standardization Engine, and select Import Standardization Plug-in.

3. In the dialog box that appears, navigate to the location of the plug-in package.

4. Select the file containing the plug-in, and then click Open.

5. Do one of the following:

   • To import the plug-in and make it available to all future master index application, click Yes.

   • To import the plug-in and make it only available to the current master index application, click No.

   The data type or variant is imported into the Standardization Engine node. Data types add folders just beneath the Standardization Engine node; variants add folders under the appropriate data type (as specified in the variant package).

6. In the Standardization Engine node, navigate to the new data type or variant you added and verify that all of the required files are there.
