Things to Know:
- The Data Importer will not ingest SMS backup files into FieldAlytics if the "Split into Multiple Files" check box is selected upon creation of the Backup in SMS.

- A Boundary Layer needs to be created in SMS and included in the SMS Backup for the Data to ingest.(See image below from SMS of a Boundary Layer)

Accessing Data Importer Tool
- Click the menu icon in the upper right hand corner of FieldAlytics screen.

- Click "Tools".

- The system opens "Tools" menu window. Use drop-down menu to select "Data Importer".
