File Menu: Import Account

Allows you to load an account that has been previously exported. Importing and exporting of accounts is an easy method of copying a single account from one database to another. An exported account is a file that can be copied to another computer or emailed (to Elk Products Technical Support, for example).

 

You must already have an account open to import another account. Open an account that is similar to the one being imported. It will not be overwritten. Select Import Account, browse for the exported file, and select it. On the Import Account dialog window, enter a unique Account ID to save the imported account to. Select any items that you don’t want imported into the Account Details screen by placing a check beside those items. Everything else, including zone definitions, users, etc., will be imported. The account will not be saved in the accounts database until you select Save Account on the File menu.
