Each Project tracks the history of all files that have been uploaded. The history displayed is dependent on the security role of the logged-in user. The columns of the grid can be searched and sorted.

Actions Click the three dots more-vertical to open the menu of available actions for the selected row. This menu is available based on the Status of the file.
  • Download Error File - Downloads the error file generated for the failed data file to the local system.
  • Download File - Downloads the original data file to the local system.
  • Re-submit - Sends the file back to processing.
Data File The name of the uploaded file, including the file extension.
Export Convert the history grid to a CSV file that can be opened and/or saved. This exports the current grid contents, including all rows from all pages and column headers. Any filtering or sorting applied to the grid is retained by the export. To export the entire grid, make sure to remove any filters before clicking Export.
New Return to the projects page to upload new files.
Refresh Updates the grid contents.
Status Indicates the current state of the upload (Submitted, Processing, Retry, Failed, Succeeded). The status is refreshed automatically without reloading the page.
Uploaded At The date and time the file was uploaded. The timestamp is stored in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) so it is displayed using a localized date/time.
Uploaded By The user that uploaded the file. Some users will only see their own uploads, whereas others may have access to see all the users that uploaded files to a project.

Actions

The actions menu provides dynamic options available for the selected row. For example, files with a status 'Failed' have an additional option to download the associated error file from the system.

Downloads Folder

Open Downloaded Files

Download File

Download the data file to your local system. The file is downloaded with the same name and contents as the originally submitted file.

Download Error File

When a file upload fails to process, a log file is generated with error messages relating to the failure. Download the error log file to your local system.

Resubmit File

An uploaded file can be resubmitted for processing without going through the regular upload process. This may need to be done in cases where a file fails to upload for one reason or another, and the file needs to be resubmitted once the issue causing the original failure has been resolved. If you have View All permissions on a project, you could also resubmit a file that was originally uploaded by another user.

Export

The History grid contents can be exported to a CSV file that can be opened and/or saved. The export includes the current grid contents, with all rows from all pages and the column headers. Any filtering or sorting applied to the grid is retained by the export. To export the entire grid, make sure to remove any filters before clicking Export.

Status

The state of the file is automatically updated to reflect where it is in the process - Submitted, Processing, Retry, Failed or Succeeded. A file may remain in any one state for a long period of time depending on the state and performance capabilities of the CM4D processing system.
Status Description
Failed
The file failed to upload to the database. This can be for several reasons, such as an incompatible format or insufficient access to the database.
Processing
The file has been placed in queue for processing.
Retry...
The file is on hold due to a connectivity issue. The system may be attempting to reconnect a number of times. The Retry options are:
  • Retry Database - File submitted to the Inbox cannot reach the Processing folder.
  • Retry Errorbox - File that failed to process cannot reach the Errorbox folder.
  • Retry Outbox - File that processed successfully but cannot reach the Outbox folder.
Submitted
The file has been uploaded to the server to be picked up for processing into the database. A file may remain in this state for a long period of time depending on the state of the CM4D processing system. For example, if the project has been suspended temporarily, the services are stopped or there is a large queue of files waiting for processing.
Succeeded
The file has been uploaded to the project successfully.

Uploaded By

The username is displayed in the Uploaded By column of the history grid. Depending on security roles, some users will only see their own uploads, whereas others may have access to see all the users that uploaded files to a project.

There are two levels for each project:
