Importing Assets Using My webMethods
My webMethods imposes a default size limit of 20 MB for files imported to, or published to, the Integration Server that hosts Trading Networks Server. If the size of the XML or binary file you are importing exceeds 20 MB, contact your system administrator to change the Max File Size content value as described in Administering My webMethods Server.

In the case of appending non-matching processing rules, they are added to the end of the existing list on the target.
c. Click OK.
