Generating a Comparison Report
Import Compare does not update the database, it compares the values
between the imported file and the existing data. Before you import the
additional data into your application, it is a good idea to generate a com-

To run an “import compare” report, please refer to the steps that follow.
1. Select Import Command Tab > Import Command Set > Compare
option from the ribbon.
