Copy Wizard

Copy Wizard

The Copy Wizard checks for conflicts in the target folder and provides choices to resolve the conflicts. For example, if an item exists in the target folder, a description of the conflict appears in the Conflict Message section of the screen. The Copy Wizard displays possible resolutions in the Resolution area of the screen. For a duplicate object you can rename, reuse, replace, or skip copying the object.
The following table describes the areas of the Copy Wizard:
Area
Description
Copy From/Copy To
Displays the original repository and folder name and the target repository and folder name.
Overview Area
Displays the items to copy, existing conflicts, original instance name, target instance name, and action taken to resolve the conflict. It displays a red icon next to each object with a conflict, and a green icon next to each object without a conflict.
Conflict Message
Identifies the current conflict and the name of the object with the conflict, if any. After you choose a resolution, the message describes the resolution.
Resolution
Displays the elected resolution or a list of choices for resolution. Choices might be different, depending on the conflict.
Edit
You can edit the object name if you choose to rename the object.
Apply This Resolution to Other Conflicts
Applies the resolution to all unresolved conflicts or just the conflicts for the same object type.
Compare Conflict
Compares duplicate objects in the target folder to the objects you are copying.
Next Conflict/Option
You can choose additional options for session and workflow resolutions, such as applying default connections or retaining connections during the copy. Next Conflict/Option displays with session or workflow conflicts that you resolve by renaming or replacing the target.
View Dependency
Displays object dependencies for the current object.
You can configure display settings and functions of the Copy Wizard by clicking Tools > Options in the Designer or Workflow Manager.
