7. Perform the following as appropriate:

   If your job requires	Then
   Only one base	Click Close. Go to step 8.
   More than one base	Click Add to Version Plan, and repeat steps 4 to 6 for each additional base, and then click Close. Then, go to step 8.

Import Feature:

You can import a CSV spreadsheet, to populate the Version Plan

Use the Rows to Import (Numbers) field to selectively import only specific rows from your spreadsheet. For example entering, "2,3-5" would only import those rows.

Use the Columns to Import (Alphabets) field to selectively import only specific columns from your spreadsheet. For example entering, "A,C" would only import those columns

Check the option Select All, to import all rows and columns from the spreadsheet

Note: When there are non-ascii characters such as accents and umlauts present in your data, be sure to save your spreadsheet in the UTF-8 format
