What are the requirements for importing ODM metadata?

The Oracle Central Designer import feature supports a subset of the ODM standard, using only the metadata that fits into the Oracle Central Designer CSML schema.

You can import metadata in ODM format into Oracle Central Designer as long as the metadata:

• Complies with version 1.3 of the ODM standard.
• Contains only standard ODM objects with no extensions.
• Has a file type of Snapshot and contains only one study, one metadata version, and one protocol.
• Includes measurement units that are present in the Oracle Central Designer Units definition in the database.

Note:

If the metadata contains units that are not present in the Oracle Central Designer database, a warning occurs, and the units are not imported.
