In the Import Attachments section of the **Settings** Menu multiple attachments can be imported. The import wizard provides an import template for each object (e.g. Equipment, Circuit, Schedule). In this template, the information about this object should be populated (such as the name of the Equipment) and the name of the attachment.

## To import multiple attachments:

- Go to Settings \ Data Transfer \ Import Attachments.
- Click **Download Import Attachment Template** to download the index template.
- Create a new folder on your own hard disk.
- Copy all attachments in that folder. Note: Make sure you do not create subfolders.
- Populate the index template (with file and object names).
- Save the template as “index.xlsx” in the same folder.
- Select all files in the folder (including the index.xlsx) and create one ZIP file.
- Go back to Settings \ Data Transfer \ Import Attachments.
- Click **Browse** and select the .ZIP file.
- Select the Import Type.
- Click **Next** to follow the Import Wizard steps.
