Import Assemblies
Conditions under which an assembly can be imported.
You can only import assemblies using the Import Assemblies Wizard. Content can be added to an assembly using different methods. For example, by selecting a root folder or any other folder or by dragging an assembly on to another assembly.
You can import the following:
— A sequence assembly
— Part of a sequence assembly
— An entire template or part of a template — An application view of the following types:
- Submitted
- Working
- Sequence
The following conditions apply when importing an assembly:
— To import only a part of an assembly, you must use the drag-and-drop function or select a folder.
— When using an imported assembly file that contains previously defined in-process links that target leaf elements, you must re-target in-process links to leaf elements.
— Leaf status assigned to each leaf element is automatically set to the default Leaf Status value configured in Data Administration.
The following are the results of importing a full or partial assembly:
— If you import an assembly into a new assembly, the settings in the imported assembly are copied into the new assembly.
— The source assembly or assembly folder you import becomes a child of the target element in the target assembly.
— Element attributes of the imported assembly or folder are referenced.
— If you import an assembly root, the folder that represents the root of a source assembly is created in the target assembly and contains the children of the imported root.
— Elements that are locked in the imported assembly are not locked in the target assembly.
— All leaf elements contained in the imported assembly root or folder are added to the target assembly with the NEW operator and a blank modified file value.
— Documents in the imported assembly do not have a value for the Created From attribute.
— You cannot import individual leaf elements, documents, or document placeholders.
— A document will not change to a placeholder when importing a source assembly where it is assigned.
— Even if the quantity limit for eCTD 4.0 assembly nodes is exceeded, the import will still be completed, and a job will be created in Job Requests.
— If the quantity limit for eCTD 4.0 assembly nodes is not exceeded, the import will be completed. — CV nodes on folders and CV values are copied after the import.
— If Reset Lifecycle Information? is selected, the unique identifiers of the leafs are recreated.
