Data Management

Data Management lets administrators manage data sets imported into the CA Service Catalog by using the following functions:

Unload Checked

Unloads (removes) the data from the data mediation tables. Associated charges are removed the next time aggregation occurs.

Note: You do not need to roll back the invoices that used the data provided by this data set before unloading and performing the re-aggregation.

Re-import Checked

Reloads imported data sets and effectively resets the aggregation flag of the imported data set to "not aggregated." Associated charges are recalculated the next time aggregation occurs.

Note: For information regarding Importing Data and Scheduling Data Imports, see the Reference Guide.

Archive Checked

Archives the selected data set. The status of the data set is changed to Archived.

Note: Archived data sets cannot be unloaded or re-imported after archiving. We recommend that you do not use archiving unless absolutely required.

Note: Aggregation results for a period appear on the Aggregation Status page, although data for that period has been unloaded and re-aggregation performed.
