The purpose of this document is to outline the process for uploading data (specifically Excel and Text files) in WebFOCUS version 8.2.07. In this version, the data within these files is now loaded into a master file (.mas) and a copy of the original file (excel (.xlsx) or text (.txt,.csv)) will also be created in the application folder.
Navigate to the Workspaces Folder within which you plan to use your data.
Right-click on the folder, select Upload, and then click Data. You will be able to choose the location where the data will be stored in a later step.
Under LOCAL FILES, select the type of file you wish to upload. In the next window, select the folder and file you wish to upload. You have a choice of selecting local files on your PC or files on a server.
There are three steps required before you click on the Load button to load the data.
In this example, an Excel spreadsheet is getting uploaded.
Click on the hamburger icon to the right of Adapter and select the desired adapter. Click on Excel and click on Select on the bottom right of the screen.
Click Application Folder and select the desired folder. Click on the folder you wish to upload to and click Select on the bottom right of the screen.
If you wish to rename the file you are about to upload, click on the name and edit it.
Check the values for Skipped rows and Header rows to be sure they reflect the data in the file to be uploaded.
Click Load.
Note: If you are loading to master that already exists, you will get a warning.
Click OK and close the tab. The upload is complete.
