Import configuration

You can import report automations that exist as an overall configuration in a file in the required XML format.

Individual configurations whose user names do not exist in the PPM system are not imported. The import is not aborted.

The arguments -replace and -overwrite are optional. The argument -replace replaces the existing overall configuration and -overwrite overwrites existing report automations.

Start the program runppmconfig.bat with the required arguments in import mode.

Warning

Deleted individual configurations and report automations cannot be restored.

Example

runppmconfig -client umg_en -user system -password manager -mode import

-reportautomations C:\Reportautomation.xml [-replace/-overwrite]

Prerequisite

You are a system administrator.
