Create a New Item: Manual Import

The New Item screen allows you to define multiple items, of the same type or of differing types, then create them all at the same time.

This topic describes how to create a new Manual Import. Manual Imports can also be created from the Manual Import screen.

To create a new Manual Import from the New Item screen:

1. In the list of asset types, click Imports. The system adds a Manual Import into the list of assets that are to be created. The default name of the Manual Import is New Import followed by a counter.

2. To pick the folder where you want to store the new Manual Import, click the Folder field. The Pick a Folder pop-up window is displayed. Select a folder or sub-folder, then click select folder. If you need to create a new folder, right-click on the parent folder, then select New Folder from the contextual menu. Enter a name for the new folder.

3. In the Name field, enter a name for your new Manual Import. This name must be unique within the selected folder.

4. Optionally, define any other assets that you want to create at the same time. If you need to remove an asset that you've defined, click the X next to the asset name within the list of assets to be created.

5. When finished, click Save All in the Tool Ribbon.
