Specifying the Destination Data Source, Exposure Set, and (Optional) Exposure View

Procedure

In AIR ImportExpress, you specify the destination, exposure set, and, optionally, the exposure view.

To specify the destination, exposure set, and, optionally, the exposure view for imported data:

  1. View the currently specified SQL server.
  2. Select the target database in which you want to save the imported data, or, to create a new database to store the imported data, enter a unique database name.

    The Database field is pre-populated with the default database specified on the Server Definition pane.

  3. In the Exposure Set Name list, select the target exposure set in which you want to save the imported data, or, to create a new exposure set for the imported data, enter a unique exposure set name.
  4. To create a new exposure view or add to an existing exposure view during the import:
    1. Select the Create an Exposure View (in a New or Existing Project) check box.
    2. In the Projects field, select the project in which you want to create the new exposure view or add to an existing exposure view.

      Alternatively, to create a new project during the import, type a name for the new project.

    3. If you created a new project, in the Project Currency field, select the currency and exchange rate to apply to the project.

      The project currency settings override the business unit currency settings.

    4. In the Exposure Views field, enter a name for the new exposure view that you want to create during the import.

      Alternatively, to add the data that you are importing to an existing exposure view, select an exposure view.

    5. To auto-generate an exposure view summary during the import, select the Auto-generate exposure summary check box.

Next Steps

After you define the destination data source, exposure set, and (optional) exposure view, AIR recommends that you configure the import options.
