The Import Wizard provides a series of screens that guide you through the process of importing user accounts, groups, folders, and reports. The screens that appear depend on the source environment and the types of information that you choose to import.
When you import information, you first connect to the Central Management Server (CMS) of your existing installation (the source environment) and specify the CMS of your new BusinessObjects Enterprise system (the destination environment). You then select the information that you want to import, and the Import Wizard copies the requested information from the source to the destination.
You can choose to merge the contents of the source repository into the destination repository, or you can update the destination with the contents of the source CMS.
Before starting this procedure, ensure that you have the Administrator account credentials for both the source and the destination environment.
