XML Import dialog box (AddOn Configuration tab)

The XML Import dialog box lets you define custom components for automatic object store population. For details on how to complete each field displayed on this screen, see the following:

Name
Enter the name you want to assign to the component. This is a required field and can contain up to 256 alphanumeric characters.
Import File
Click Browse to select the XML file you want in the AddOn.
Prerequisites (optional)
Select from the drop-down box the component you want installed immediately prior to installing this one. The prerequisite determines the order in which the user-defined components are installed during object store creation.

NOTE   More than one component can have the same prerequisite.
AddOn type - Recommended or Optional
Select whether the AddOn's installation should be considered Recommended (and therefore selected by default) or Optional (unselected by default) by the Object Store Wizard's Advanced page.
 
In general, you should specify as optional those feature AddOns that are not required for your system or that deal with specialized, niche functionality. A recommended AddOn is one that is typically installed as part of most systems, but one that could be eliminated if a user does not need that functionality on a particular system. As an example, you can specify the publishing AddOn type as recommended so that a user who has no need of publishing functions can exclude that particular AddOn when creating a new object store. Note, however, that some AddOns may be required by other components of the FileNet P8 system and should not be excluded.
Scripts
(Optional) Specify any pre-import and post-import scripts, that is scripts that should run as part of this AddOn before or after the XML file named in the Import File box.

NOTE  This feature currently supports only the JScript and VBScript engines
