Import export condition values

Instructions for use

When you need to share the contingent values and conditions of a dataset, create a backup, or update the production database, you can use the import and export function to import or export contingent values. When exporting contingent values from a dataset, it creates a CSV file for conditions and a CSV file for contingent values respectively.

  • Conditions.csv file: Contains information about the conditions and the fields included in the conditions.
  • Contingent values.csv file: Contains information about the combinations of contingent values.

Function access

  • Attribute Management tab->Attribute Management group->Conditional Value group->Import/Export button.

Operation steps

Export condition values

  1. Click the Attribute Management tab->Attribute Management group->Conditional Value group->Export button.
  2. In the pop-up export contingent values dialog, set the path and name for the conditions CSV file and contingent values CSV file separately.
  3. After completion, click the OK button.

Import condition values

  1. Click the Attribute Management tab->Attribute Management group->Conditional Value group->Import button.
  2. In the pop-up import contingent values dialog, specify the corresponding conditions CSV file and contingent values CSV file separately.
  3. Overwrite existing condition values: Used to specify whether to overwrite or merge existing values during import, unchecked by default. If checked, the existing values in the target table will be completely overwritten by the values in the input *.csv file. If unchecked, the existing values in the target table will be merged with the values in the input *.csv file, and duplicates will be retained only once.
  4. After completion, click the OK button.
    Notes:

    When importing contingent values, the target dataset must have the same fields as in the import files for the import to succeed; otherwise, it will fail, and the output window will display: Import failed. The import does not match the current dataset.
