Managing Import Options
Imported transactions are selected to make sure everything in the imported file is valid in Time Capture. Select an option for handling invalid or missing information. These settings are not stored in the parameter set.
Validating and Correcting Data
To validate and correct data, select any of the following options:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Confirm each transaction before import | Displays all transactions in the Import Transaction Editor. Invalid transactions can be corrected and imported or skipped. This option allows the review of all transactions, but requires your approval of all transactions. |
| Display and correct errors as they are found | Displays invalid transactions in the Import Transaction Editor. Invalid transactions can be corrected and imported or skipped. This option does not allow the review of all transactions, but does not require your approval for valid transactions. |
| View errors when the import is finished |
Imports all valid transactions. Invalid transactions display on the Errors tab after the process is completed. This option does not require monitoring the import process. Tip: This option is useful for import files that have historically had few errors. |
Replacing Invalid Data
To replace invalid data with valid data, select one of the following methods:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Dates with system date | Replaces invalid or missing dates with the system date from your computer. To check the system date on your computer, hover your mouse over the time display in the lower right of your window. |
| Staff with |
