To be able to configure an import fully, you must test the access to the source server and the source directory or the import file. The system checks the following:
-
Connection setup to the server
-
Read access
When you specify a directory, the server checks the read access to the directory that holds the file to be imported.
When you specify an import file, the system checks the read access to the import file.
- Write access to the directory that holds the file(s) to be imported.
When the system checks the connection setup and read access, you will either receive a success message or an error message.
When the system checks the write access, you will either receive a success message or a warning message. The following contains an overview of the possible messages.

Possible messages |
|
|---|---|---|

Connection setup |
|
Connection setup successful |

|
Connection setup failed |
|
|
Read access |
|
Read access to <source path> is possible |
|
|
Read access failed |
|
|
Write access |
|
Write access to <source path> is possible |
|
|
Write access failed |

To ensure that your import can be configured and performed properly, a connection to the server and read access must be available. Write access is not absolutely necessary for the import. For this reason, the system only displays a warning message. However, please bear in mind that you will not be able to delete the import file from the source directory after the import if no write access exists. It will also not be possible to store the import log in the source directory. (For more information, see the section Specify import options.)
For your import to be configured and performed properly, the result of the test should be as follows:
