Importing Many to Many

Import a folder that contains Interactive Reporting documents and combine each document with the same Dashboard Studio template to create a folder of matching imported ESM files.

*  To import sections by using Many to Many:

  1. From Import Method, select Many To Many.

  2. Click Browse button (next to Template), to locate the template.

    Select a Dashboard Studio template that provides the sections to be imported into the Interactive Reporting documents to create ESMs. The Template box is pre-filled with the location of the template selected on the Start window.

  3. Click Browse button (next to Document Folder to Import), to locate the folder that contains the Interactive Reporting documents.

    The original, selected Interactive Reporting documents are not altered.

  4. Click Browse button (next to Save Path), to locate where the imported documents or templates are to be saved.

  5. Click Import.

    After the import process is complete, a report detailing the imported sections is displayed. Dashboard Studio sections in the documents being imported are ignored, and all other selected sections are imported. Imported sections with names of original sections are renamed (for example, Query becomes Query2).

  6. Optional: To examine the imported documents in Interactive Reporting Studio and connect them to Dashboard Studio, click View.

The result is identical numbers of Interactive Reporting documents in the specified save path and in the specified Document Folder to Import folder.
