Handling of Unreviewed Files During a Project Import

During a project import, a codebase file that was flagged as “unreviewed” in the source project (that is, the project from which the import data file was created) does not retain its unreviewed status in the target project if the target codebase scan has marked the corresponding target file as reviewed. This occurs because the import data file stores information for only those codebase files that have been marked as reviewed in the source project. Hence, no information about the unreviewed file exists in the import data to overwrite information for this same file in the target project.

If, during a standard import, you want the target project codebase to retain the reviewed and unreviewed status of codebase files in the source project, manually flag all of the codebase files in the target project as “unreviewed” before importing the data file. In this way, any unreviewed files in the source project remain unreviewed in the target project; files marked as reviewed in the source project are included in the import data file and will be marked as reviewed in the target project if they meet the import file-matching criteria.
