Import Jobs Queue

To access the Import Jobs Queue, select Utilities > Importing > Import Jobs Queue. By default, the jobs are sorted by the date and time posted. If multiple files were selected for import, each file appears on a separate line. Completed jobs remain in the queue until an authorized user manually deletes them. You can click any column heading to sort the list.

Note:
Pending import jobs have been successfully initialized, but the import processing has not yet begun. Blacked out import jobs have been successfully initialized, or may have started running, but import processing is not currently allowed because a system- or user-defined blackout time is in effect. When the blackout time has ended, processing automatically begins or resumes.

Use the Import Jobs Queue to:

• View import jobs - Import jobs are listed in the queue following statuses:

• Pending - Initializing is completed, but processing has not begun.

• Running - Import processing is occurring

• Completed - Import processing has finished successfully

• Stopped - Stopped by an authorized user

• Blacked out - Automatically paused by the system because the job was running when a blackout period arrived. The job resumes automatically when the blackout period is over.

• Refresh the queue - Click .

• Stop an import job you have initiated - If you have permission to do importing, either the full importing permission (Import bibliographic, item and authority records) or the limited importing permission (Express importing), you can stop or delete your own import jobs.

• Stop an import job initiated by another staff member - To stop or delete import jobs initiated by other staff members, you must have the permission Manage import jobs for this organization: Allow for the organization where the job was launched (displayed in the Organization column in the Import Job Queue).

• Delete a completed or stopped job - Select the job and click  or right-click and select Stop from the context menu.

• View and print an import report - Select an import job in the list, and select File > View Report to view the report. Select File > Print from the report preview window to print the report.
