Collections
Note:
• During the import, the software checks to see if any prerequisite objects needed by the report
(such as Value Lists) already exist. If they do not, the import will create them. If they already
exist, the import process leaves them in place and does not overwrite them.
• This allows users from one system to write a report that uses a certain Value List (for example,
the Skill Groups Value List), and then export the report and import it into another system
that has another (different) Skill Groups Value List. There is no need to create a new Value
List or to edit the report.
• Reports are language-independent. The report templates and their generated output depends
on the locale you select for Unified IC.
Importing Multiple Reports
Although the stock templates are imported as a group, you must import other templates one at
a time.
When you need to import multiple template (for example, when you back up your templates
and want to re-import them), you can combine them in a zip file and import the zip file.
Note: If you import a zip file with multiple reports, Unified IC extracts the zip file for you.
Data Sources
A template is not populated until you define its Data Source and test the Data Source connection.
To define a Data Source, select Data Sources drawer > Data Sources page > Create to open
the Data Sources create page.
Refer to the online help for directions to create the data source.
