Family & Order

 Step 5 - Import of the hierachycal relation between families and the order

After the relations between the species and the families are imported we proceed with the hierarchical relation between families and the order. Choose Data → Import Wizard → Import Hierarchy … from the menu. 

As described in the previous steps, open the file ImportTutorial.txt shipped with this application. In the Merging step set the table on Merge (see below).

As described in the previous step, select the project of your choice and set the columns Taxon and Higher Taxon to From file. 

Click on the button to select the source for the family (see below).

… and the orders as shown below.

Additionally you must select these columns as Key columns, used to compare the data from the file with the content in the database (see below).

A final test before importing the data turns positive (see below).

Now we are ready to import the relation into the database. For every family this relation will be imported only once (see below).

As a last step, search for the highest taxon “Russulales” in the hierarchy in the main from and click on the button set hierarchy (see below) .

After the hierarchy for the Russulales is set, all imported name will show the complete hierarchy as shown in the example below.
