Import a workflow configuration account

You can import everything from a previous workflow configuration account.

Note:

This option is used when installing or upgrading the Oracle Empirica Signal application. Typically, you do not need to perform this process during regular system use.

When you import topic workflow configurations from an Oracle account, the application does the following:

  • Adds any new topic workflow configurations found in the Oracle account.
  • Re-imports any topic workflow configurations found in the Oracle account that have been deleted from the application by having references removed. Any topics (and comments associated with them) that existed at the time of the deletion are also restored.

Note:

If a topic workflow configuration has been deleted permanently, it cannot be re-imported.

A confirmation dialog box displays after topic workflow configurations are imported successfully. The import does not affect your current or existing topic workflow configurations.

  1. In the left navigation pane, click the Settings icon (Settings icon).
  2. In the Configure System section, click Manage Topic Workflow Configurations.
  3. Click the Import Workflow Configuration Account link.

    A confirmation dialog box appears.

  4. Click OK.
  5. (Recommended) Test the topic workflow configurations before you publish them to a login group. For each configuration, do the following:
    1. Log out and log back in as the user who created the configuration.
    2. Click the Topic Management page and select the new configuration.
    3. When you are finished, publish the topic workflow configuration to the login group.
