Importing sample objects

About this task

WorldServer includes a number of sample objects that you can import into your WorldServer instance. Among these samples are:
  • Workflows for quote approval processing, term validation, and asset translation
  • File type configurations
  • User types for typical term browsing operations
To import these samples, do the following:

Procedure

  1. Go to Management > Administration > Import Objects - Step 1 of 2, browse to the XML file of the sample you want, and click Upload File.
    The samples are located in the samples\deployment directory of your WorldServer installation. For example, if your installation is in C:\Program Files and you want to import the Quote Approval Process workflows, you would browse to C:\Program Files\Idiom\WorldServer\samples\deployment, and then to \workflows\quote_processing_workflows.xml.
  2. Select the primary objects that you want to import, and then click Next.
  3. Confirm the objects that you want to import by clicking Import.
    Note: Some of the sample objects that you can import have dependencies on already uploaded SDK sample objects. For example, the "Advanced Quote Approval Process Workflow" depends on the SDK sample "Set Quote Status " automatic action sample that has already been uploaded. If you try to import the "Advanced Quote Approval Process Workflow" object before you upload the "Set Quote Status " automatic action sample, the import will fail and it will tell you which object is required.
