Import the File

Refer to Import a File at the Request-Role Level and Import Tips for general information.

Before performing these steps, Generate the File.

NOTE: Each Data Entry role that should import a spreadsheet for the template must have the Excel Import Allowed check box enabled. Navigate to the Template (Role) page’s Vertical View for the Data Entry role. On the Import Settings tab, click the check box to enable it. This check box is enabled by default.

To import a file that contains the request data:

  1. Select Requests on the Navigation pane.
  2. Click Roles for the request.
  3. Click Vertical View for the Data Entry role.

  4. Click the Delete Data Before Import – File check box to select it, if necessary.

    NOTE: When importing data from the file, this field controls whether or not data on the data entry page should be deleted. Enable this check box to delete target data before the import is processed.

  5. Click Import to upload the Excel file containing the request data.

NOTE: If an Excel file contains a column that has data but does not have a column header, dspCompose™ does not import the data in that column.
