When importing a User list, each user and all of the information associated with the user can be thought of as a Record. Each piece of information associated with each User can be thought of as a Field.
You cannot finish the import process without assigning the following required fields to records:
Last name
First name
User name
Password (for logging in to the program)
ID1 (a secondary ID, such as a Social Security Number).
Note: The file you're trying to import must have the following properties:
A comma-delimited text file must have a carriage return ("^p" in Microsoft Word's Find and Replace) between each User Record and a comma between each Field. (i.e. user1 field1, user1 field2, user1 field3, user1 field4... carriage return, user2 field1, user2 field2...). In Excel, each Record must start in a new row, and each Field must start in a new column (have it's own cell in that row).
Your file must have Fields in the same column from one Record to the next to import the test correctly. For example, the Last Name Field for all of the Users must be in the same column of your Excel file, or the same number of commas from the last carriage return in your comma-delimited file.
To import users:
Select File > import > Users in the Test Generator main window to open the Import File Name dialog.
Locate your file and click Open. (Make sure to select the proper file type from the dropdown box at the bottom of the window.)
The Import Users window opens.
You must assign the categories or "fields" in the box on the right to the columns ("records") of information in the box on the left. Highlight a record by clicking the gray box at the top of the column. Then double-click a field in the box on the right. The field appears at the top of the column and disappear from the list in the box on the right.
Click Next.
Note: The Import Users window does not allow you to finish the import process without assigning certain, required fields to records. The required fields are Last name, First name, User name and Password (for logging in to the program), and ID1 (a secondary ID, such as a Social Security Number).
Click the Finish button to import the users.
