Overview

This document reviews common Project Import Issues along with various Import Resolution options. While many issues can be ignored, others may need alternate action to provide project functionality and stability.

These options can be applied individually by selecting an option in the Resolve Import Issues window, or universally by the type of Issue in the Default Resolutions panel.

  2. From the Default Resolutions panel, select a Resolution from the dropdown menu for each Issue.
    The options available as selection as a Default Resolution include:
    • Exclude From Import
    • Add Other File
    • Move To Folder
    • Move To Current Folder 
    • Make as Root Folder
    • Ignore Issue and Import
    • Override
    • Keep Local Version


  3. Click APPLY TO ISSUES then proceed through the Import as usual. 
    Each Issue displays the default method for fixing Import Issues. Clicking APPLY TO ISSUES applies the selected Resolution to any instance of those Import Issues in the current Import.
