Transfer to another system

Transfer to another system option exports the current, accepted, and published revisions and everything they need (DID, Includes) without exporting the KCM Repository specific data (authorization). Labels, Characteristics, and older revisions can be exported as additional options.

This export option makes it possible to move objects from one KCM Repository to other KCM Repository without unnecessary information.

The user who imports the export must be aware that the roles and permissions are not exported, so they have to be reassigned.

  1. To perform this export type, in the tree view, click the object to export and on the menu click File > Import/Export > Export.

    The Export dialog is opened.

  2. Select the option.
  3. Select the location to export the object.
  4. If you are using labels and the object to export has several revisions, check Select exported objects by label and select the label from the drop-down list. For more on labels, see Label objects.
  5. Check Include history (older revisions) to export all revisions of the object. This option is not available if an object revision is selected.
  6. Check Include label and characteristics to export labels and characteristics of the object and its revisions.
