Hey Ben- Thanks for the reply! So I can do the import to the join form BMC.CORE:BMC_ComputerSystem (join of BMC.CORE:BMC_BaseElement and BMC.CORE:BMC_ComputerSystem_)? Or do I need to do it to the regular form BMC.CORE:BMC_ComputerSystem_ (underscore)? Will workflow create the entry to Base Element form or will I need to do a separate import there?

The required workflow is set to fire on Merge and the BMC Import tool does not allow you to inhibit the merge filters. Using AST:ComputerSystem is not recommended. Not all fields are guaranteed to be in the AST forms where as the BMC.CORE join forms does contain all fields. Cheers Ben Chernys Software Tool House Inc.

I'm planning to import a bunch of data for computer systems. The form AST:ComputerSystem is where I want to see the data, but it's an inner join of BMC.CORE:BMC_ComputerSystem. Since I don't want to create new records, is that where I need to do the actual import and use the Request IDs on that form?
