| # Import Version Dump (tgbrg1245m000) use.session.to: Copy data from one system or company to another system or company. Import translated descriptions and texts import a backup of DEM data. Import files are created with the Export Version Dump (tgbrg1235m000) session. If the source version, created with the Export Version Dump (tgbrg1235m000) session, is different from the version into which you want to import the data (target version), you must select the Import Model Items into different Version check box. When the data is being imported, ERP checks whether the version that is to be imported already exists in the target system or company. If the version does not exist ERP will ask if the version must be created. If the import file contains data from derived-from-versions, the file was exported with the Include Previous Versions check box that was selected in the Export Version Dump (tgbrg1235m000) session. Consequently, this structure must also exist in the system or company into which the file is to be imported. If the import file contains data from derived-from-versions, and this data is imported into a different version than it was originally exported, the DEM data versions are purged into one import version. If an import file is exported from an older DEM software version the DEM data is automatically converted to the new DEM data format. Keep in mind that when you import a range of business processes, the components and corresponding applications that are used in the business processes are not imported. Use the Import Component Model Data (tgbrg5256m000) session to import the components and applications. Of course, you must first export the components and applications by using the Export Component Model Data (tgbrg5257m000) session. If you import a version dump and the applications to which the activities are linked already exist on your system, or in your company, you do not have to export and import the applications. However, if the right applications are present, but the component and component release are named differently, use the Rename Cmp. & Release Codes in Activities and Supp. App's (tgbrg5220m000) session to re-establish the links between the activities and the applications. If you import Baan IVc DEM data you are prompted to specify the Baan IVc component to which the ERP session should be linked. This component with applications should be available. If an imported version is protected with a license you need to enter the license registration. If the data in the file is not correct, a log file will be printed with the errors and the line number in the file. Examples of errors: A reference does not exist A code or description is too long A table field does not exist File The path and file name where the ASCII file is stored. Default value `$BSE/tmp` `$BSE` represents the ERP Software Environment on the server. You can overwrite the default path. Import Model Items into different Version check.selected the data must be imported into a target version that is different from the source version of the version dump that is created with the Export Version Dump (tgbrg1235m000) session. You must specify the target version in the Import into Version field. The version into which the ASCII file is imported. Import into Version The description or name of the model item. Note You can only enter the target version in this field if you have selected the Import Model Items into different Version check box. Overwrite check.selected the data that already exists in the target version is overwritten by the import data.

All descriptions are checked to make sure they still comply to the domain definition on the target system. If not they are adjusted to the new domain.
