Exclude Archived Objects During Template Import

When importing a template file, you can prevent archived objects in the template from being imported into a target Enterprise Data Management environment if the objects are not already present. An Exclude Archived Objects option is available for template preview and import to control whether archived objects in the template will be created in the target environment. For objects which are depend on an archived object, those dependent objects will also be excluded from the template import if they do not exist in the target environment. In cases where a dependent object would be partially excluded, the object will appear in the template preview and import with a warning message indicating it cannot be imported.

Business Benefit: Archived objects that were created for an application or dimension in a source environment but are not needed in a target environment can be excluded during a template import process to ensure those objects are not migrated.
