Editing Loads

After you have created a load, you can edit it to change the general load settings, map the columns in the load to your existing properties, and modify the formatting options. You must have Owner or Metadata Manager permission on a dimension in order to be able to edit a load.

1. On the General tab of the load inspector, click Edit to change any of these general settings:
   • Name and description of the load.
   • The view or viewpoint to run the load to. Only active, non-time-labeled viewpoints within the dimension that you are creating the load for are able to be selected. If the viewpoint has been archived, a warning icon is displayed.
   • Default file name for the load file. Ensure that you enter a valid text format such as .csv, .or .zip. See Viewpoint Load File Format.
2. On the Columns tab, specify the mapping between the columns in the load and the properties in your dimension. See Configuring Columns in Loads.

   Tip:

   This enables you to load files that don't contain headers, or that contain column names that are different from the properties in your dimension.
3. On the Options tab, specify your File Format, Processing, and Merge options. See Specifying Load Options.
4. Click Save.
