  3. Expand Document Vaults.
  4. Expand a vault.
  5. Select Configurations.
  6. In the gray navigation area, right-click a configuration category and select Import from File... from the context menu.
    Result:The Open dialog is opened.
  7. Locate and select the configuration export file, and then click Open.
    Result:A confirmation dialog appears after the import is complete.
  8. Click OK.
  9. Right-click the category and select Save All from the context menu to save the imported configurations.
The selected configurations are imported to the server computer.
