- Tip: the Replace command will import tag codes much faster than the Import command. Use the Import command only when appending a relatively small number of tag codes (less than 25k) to a tag action.
- Tip: the Delete All and Replace commands will generate a lot of empty space in the P3 database. We recommend running the Compact and Repair utility after running any of these commands to optimize the database.

The Upload page of the Upload Manager displays a list of all valid tag sessions that
can be selected for submission. To select a particular tag session for uploading,
check the corresponding box in the Upload column. To submit the tag session as a
correction, check the corresponding box in the Correction column.
Note: When uploading multiple files, each file must have a unique Tag File Name.
Once the tag sessions have been selected, simply press the Upload command
button and the tag sessions will be automatically submitted to PTAGIS. A progress
window will display each step in the automated process. The upload process may
take a few moments to complete, depending upon how busy the PTAGIS server is.
The data transfer is verified by the PTAGIS server and status information is
downloaded to the client PC and displayed in the History tab page described in the
next section. The client also downloads any updated status information from
previous upload attempts.
A visual indicator next to each tag session name in the upload manager indicates the
upload status of each tag session:
Indicates a tag session that has never been uploaded according
to the current history.
Indicates a tag session that has been uploaded at least one
time.
Indicates a tag session that has been uploaded as a correction
at least one time.
Upload History
An additional benefit using the automated upload process is that status information
is stored for each upload attempt. This is useful information when managing several
tag sessions. The status information is stored on the History tab page of the
Upload Manager.
This page displays a row for each tag session that was uploaded. Each column can be
grouped by dragging the column with the mouse to the top of the report, such as the
