Profile Import Properties Dialog Box

  • Article

For the latest version of Commerce Server 2007 Help, see the Microsoft Web site.

Use the Profile Import Properties dialog box to specify the profile data that you want to import by using the Profile Data Import DTS task. This task imports the four types of profile data that Commerce Server collects when users visit the Web site:

  • User profile data

  • Organization profile data

  • Generic profile data

  • Site terms

Note

If you have many user profiles and you are performing a full import, you can set the Import start date to import only part of the user profiles.

Description

Type a description for the import DTS task. The maximum number of characters for the description is 255 characters.

Operation level

From the drop-down list, select an operation level:

  • Site level. Import profile data for the specified site only.

  • Data Warehouse level. Import profile data for all the sites associated with the Data Warehouse.

Site name

From the drop-down list, select the site that contains the profile data that you want to import.

Data Warehouse name

From the drop-down list, select the Data Warehouse associated with the sites that contain the profile data that you want to import.

Import start date

From the drop-down calendar, select a date on which to start the import.

Query interval

Type the time interval for the import. Commerce Server imports user data in time intervals to prevent locking the database table. For example, a Web site that has 10,000 users would import user data in 15-minute intervals.

Setting a smaller value will lock the table for a shorter duration but will increase the number of queries against the table and therefore the time the task takes to run. Setting the value to zero will run a single query, locking the table for the whole duration of import but may decrease site performance.

Incremental load

Select to only import new profile data generated since the last time that you ran the import process.

Full load

Select to import all catalog data in the log file.

Number of retries

Type the number of times you want the task to retry connection failures to the Data Warehouse. The default number of retry attempts is 10 times.

Seconds between retries

Type the number of seconds you want the task to wait between retry attempts. The default time interval is 30 seconds.
