• Assets – Lets you add assets to catalogs. After selecting an Asset Handling Set, a dialog opens to browse for the assets you want to add. For a description on how to go on see “Browse for Assets” .

• Records – Lets you import records that were exported to XML files or to Cumulus Record Exchange Files. If you have multiple catalogs open in one window, you are prompted to select the catalog to which you want to import the records. The imported records are appended to the active collection.

• Categories – Lets you import categories that were exported to XML files or Cumulus Category Exchange Files. If you have multiple catalogs open in one window, you are prompted to select the catalog to which you want to import the categories. The imported categories are appended to the active/selected catalog. If a category in the import file has the same name as an existing category, the category is not imported.

• Collection – Lets you import collections stored with previous Cumulus versions on the computer running the Client application and collections sent to you via email. If you have multiple catalogs open in one window, you are prompted to select the catalog which you want to import the collection to.

• From Text/CSV File – Lets you import metadata from text files (separated by delimiters.) As a comma is a very common delimiter, such files are also called Comma Separated Value (CSV) files. This import option enables you to import metadata from other database systems into Cumulus catalogs.
