Resolving General Object Conflicts

You can resolve some object conflicts by creating rules that apply to a set of objects. Create rules on the Specify Rules for Conflict Resolutions page of the Import Wizard. When you create an object resolution rule, the

CDI-PC Client

resolves object conflicts for objects to which the rule applies.

You can create multiple rules. Use the buttons in the Import Wizard to move the rules up and down. The

CDI-PC Client

applies the rules to objects in order. If multiple rules apply to one object, the

CDI-PC Client

applies the uppermost rule.

The following table describes the different columns you define for each rule:

Column	Description
Select Criteria	Choose the set of objects the rule applies to. You can choose the following sets of objects: Objects with label. Applies to all objects with the label you choose. You can select this option when you import objects into a versioned repository. Objects in query. Applies to all objects that result from the object query you choose. You can select this option when you import objects into a versioned repository. Objects of type. Applies to objects of the type you choose. All objects. Applies to all objects you import.
Select Value	Choose a value that modifies the first column. For example, if you select Objects with label in the first column, choose the label name in this column.
Select Resolution	Choose how to resolve the object conflicts. You can resolve conflicts using the following methods: Replace. Replaces the existing object in the destination folder. Reuse. Uses the existing object in the destination folder. Rename. Creates a new object in the destination folder with a new name. When you choose Rename, you can specify a different name in the Conflict Resolution Wizard. Prompt User. You can choose a resolution on an object by object basis. When you choose Prompt User, you can define the specific conflict resolutions in the Conflict Resolution Wizard.

After you create general object resolution rules, you can resolve specific object conflicts using the Import Wizard.
