Import From XML

Import from XML allows you to load Instruments, Procedures, or Views from a file when the development team sends out files for a new device or to restore a backup and to import views or Flowsheets shared by other users or sites.

Note: You must be assigned the role of MD ADMINISTRATOR to use this function.
