Select this option to accumulate the data in the application with the data in the load file. For each unique point of view that exists in the data file and in the application, the value from the load file is added to the value in the application.
You can use the Accumulate Within File option in conjunction with the Merge and Replace options. This option accumulates the data in the file first and loads the totals into the application based on the load option selected.
If the file that you are loading contains ownership data, you must indicate this by selecting File Contains Ownership Data. If you do not select this option and the data file contains ownership data or shares data, an error occurs when you load the file.
