These instructions will enable you to produce a report from CMIS which can then be used to set up your Target Tracker files.

If you are extracting data from CMIS for the first time you will need to import the 'report template' we have provided into your system. This template may be downloaded from our website, www.targettracker.org - Support Articles – Downloads, or you can browse to its location on any PC running Primary Target Tracker by following this path -(C/ProgramFiles/TT/DataExtractionKit/CMIS)

To import the template

From the Main Screen select Reports > Reports.

On the next screen select Advanced and then Import.

Save the file with an appropriate name, for example myschool.xls  Make sure you only use alpha or numeric characters in the filename (i.e. no spaces or symbols such as backslash).
