Create Client Consolidation File

Access this form with Administrative user rights using File>Create Client Consolidation File. It is only available if the Data Consolidation Client module is installed.

Use this form to generate a "client" consolidation file that will be merged into a Consolidated Organization. This file must be generated for each organization.

This file only contains the necessary information to consolidate. Therefore, the file size is reduced dramatically in comparison to the actual database. This file must be created for both the "client" and the "parent" in preparation for consolidation. By default, the system creates a file name using the following format:

Name	Year				Month		Day		Time
SSA_	2	0	0	2	0	4	2	3	1	2	1	9

 

Organization: Select the existing organization to create a file for consolidation.

Create File: Enter the file name for the organization being consolidated. The file must be stored to a local drive for SQL server. A network drive path is not allowed.

We recommend using Browse and store the files in the MIP Share\Consolidation Files folder. Then, click Start to begin the consolidation process. Note that you cannot create a database in a folder that is compressed.
