To import templates

You can use the import button to import templates that were created in the same version of Unica Marketing Operations that you are using. To import templates from an earlier version of Unica Marketing Operations, you must upgrade.

1.	From the Settings menu, select Unica Marketing Operations Settings.

2.	Click Template Configuration.

3.	Click Import.

The Import Templates dialog appears.

4.	Enter the path name of the template archive you are importing, or navigate to it using the Browse button.

5.	Select the template types to import. By default, all types are imported; uncheck any types you do not want to import.

6.	In the Update Database section, choose which database scripts to run:

Drop tables

Create/Update tables

Drop Lookup Tables

Create/Update Lookup Tables

Checking all the boxes will fully import the template. However, if you are re-importing a template and you drop the tables, you will lose data in any existing object you created using the template. For example, if you re-import a campaign project template and drop the tables, you will lose any data you entered in the TCS in any project created using that template.

If you are concerned about overwriting data, you can examine the SQL script files in the template archive to see the details, and create the necessary tables and columns manually.

7.	Click Continue to import the selected template(s).

A summary page appears, detailing templates being imported, and any warnings about current template files that will be overwritten.

8.

Click:

Save Changes to import the templates, or

Cancel to abort the import, and avoid overwriting any existing templates.

The system reads the template files and analyzes them, and reports any errors. Imported templates are saved to the template database, then all available templates are reloaded from the database.

The archives containing the example templates are located in the \tools\admin\sample_templates folder under your Unica Marketing Operations installation. Use the archive for your database type. (For example, use sample_templatesDB2 if you are using a DB2 database.)
