Step 4.4 – Specify list folder and export/import locations

1Insert a memory card into the memory-card drive.

2Start Data Manager software.

3From the Admin Setup menu, click Folders. The Folders dialog box appears.

4From the Folders dialog box, specify the locations for the folders that you created earlier.

a Specify the Shelf Order Lists folder location. b Specify the Search Lists folder location.

c Specify the Pull Lists folder location.

d Specify the Import File Destination folder location (a user-created folder where Data Manager saves data that it imports from a memory card.)

Click the Browse buttons to select the list folders that you created earlier (see page 10).

If a folder does not exist, enter the path of the new folder that you want to create.

5Select the Export/Import Location (memory-card drive).

Use the Browse button to select the memory- card drive that you will use with Data Manager.

6Check the Save data for faster exporting of the same lists checkbox to save a backup copy of the latest export on your hard drive.

This allows faster exporting if you are exporting the same group of lists to multiple memory cards.

Always enable this option unless your computer has limited hard-disk space.

7Click OK. The list folders (and any files and subfolders in these folders) appear in the main window. (See Figure 5.)

Can’t Find Export/Import Location

The following warning message appears if a memory card is not in the memory-card drive.

If the drive letter shown in the message is correct, click OK.
