The import feature allows you to import Data Entry Forms from one computer/database to another computer/database. {{note| Before you import Data Entry Forms, ensure that:* Custom Defined Fields and option selection values are the same in the exporting and importing databases * the Data Entry Form template name need to be published and active in the importing database * Auxiliary data used must also exist in the importing database with the same GUIDs. }} {{Warning | Data will '''only''' be imported for attributes present on the Data Entry Form template in the importing computer/database. For example, if the Data Entry Form(s) that was exported used a template with 50 attributes, but the receiving-end template only contains 20 of the 50 attributes, data will only be imported for these 20 attributes.}} The import Data Entry Form(s) from maXML xml file(s) function is started from the [[Access and Use the Workbench Window|Workbench]].<ol><li>From the Workbench window, click the [[Image:Import.png | Import]] button.
