Assign the rest of the information to the newly imported item defini-
tions. Refer to

integrate with your existing data. Use a delimited text file to import the
data via the standard IntelliTrack import function. For more information,
please refer to

“Standard IntelliTrack Import” on page 234

Comparison Report” on page 234

These instructions omit the data purge step. Complete the following steps
to import data into Check In-Out:

Note: The imported file must comply with the field order and specifica-
tions defined in

Table 7, “Import-Export Fields,” on page 228

. For more

information on importing, refer to

“Additional Importing Information” on

page 227

Generating a Comparison Report

Import Compare does not update the database, it compares the values
between the imported file and the existing data. Before you import the
additional data into your application, it is a good idea to generate a com-
parison report between imported data and the data currently in the Check
In-Out database.

To run an “import compare” report, please refer to the steps that follow.

1.

Select Import > Import > Compare option from the ribbon.
