To submit import batches for the import process, you define the import settings for the batch:
Batch De-Duplication: Optionally choose to run batch de-duplication and, if so, specify how to identify and resolve duplicates within the import batch. See: Batch De-Duplication.
Address Validation: Optionally choose to run address validation on the import batch, and if so, specify the authorized sources to use for validation. See: Address Validation.
Import to Registry: Optionally choose to preview results before import, or to run Registry de-duplication. You also specify error handling settings. See: Import to Registry.
When you submit a batch for import, you run the Import Batch to TCA Registry program for that batch. The import process is the same, except that you do not need to run the Import Batch De-Duplication report. You can access batch de-duplication preview or results through viewing or updating the batch. See: Import Process.
After the import process successfully completes, postimport processes automatically run. See: Postimport Processes.
You should be familiar with:
How records from the interface tables are determined for either insertion as a new record or for updating an existing record in the TCA Registry. See: Matching Records with Source System Management.
What types of validation the records from the interface tables must pass for successful import. See: Import Validations.
