Availability: If more than one filing code is placed in one field, enter the separator for the filing codes.

Keywords: Select the language of the keywords in the references. The keywords can be transferred either to the private descriptors or the public available the descriptors. If you use special signs to classify you keywords you can use the mapping to translate this classification into the descriptor concept in DiversityReferences. This is shown in the Mapping for descriptor elements section in the image above. 

Mapping User defined: The UserDefined fields within Reference Manager will be transferred to the corresponding fields within the table ReferenceTitle of DiversityReferences unless you specify it otherwise. If possible, use the more exact targets within DiversityReferences for your import.

Import options: You may either update data allready in the database and import new data from the source or just import new data.

Import format: Currently there is only one import format that is supported by DiversityReferences - Reference Manager (RIS).
