The following table summarizes the steps required to complete the import process from start to finish. Note that this section only a summary and assumes that you are familiar with the details described in the previous sections. It highlights what steps are manual and what steps are performed by a batch monitor process. For each step, the table highlights the Next Action sequence that would occur. For the Apply steps, there are two parts where multiple next actions are possible based on whether there are errors and the user’s decision on how to resolve the error. Refer to Resolving Errors for more information. The possible next actions have the same sequence with a letter following the sequence highlighting the action to take based on the results of the previous step.

Also note that a sequence and action marked in bold is considered the “normal path”.

The following table summarizes the batch monitor jobs that are used in the import process. You can see that there are special monitor processes for the Apply step for both the Object and Transaction. However, for all other states that have monitor logic, the standard monitor process for that MO is used.

Refer to Running Batch Jobs for more information about managing the batch jobs, including ways to automate the above steps.
