- Click No to import all plans and/or locations.
- Click Yes if you wish to import data for only the plan you have open.
8) The software may ask you to clarify some information if it does not recognize the codes you used. You will need to read and respond to each window as it appears. An example is shown below.

- a) Read the statement.
- b) Select the appropriate entry in the category.
- c) Click OK.
9) If the software asks you to clarify information that does not seem to correspond with the information shown at bottom, you will need to Cancel your import and correct your import file. For example, if “M” for “Male” is shown in the box at top, but race information is shown at bottom, the import file has race data in the gender column. After correcting your import file start the import process again.

- b) Set Minimum plan size if you want a different threshold than 50.
- c) Click OK.
- d) Click Open Plan to confirm that all small plans were rolled up.
