    There is an object of entity A with AMID 821df1d4-3ed8-463e-a9a3-ea841be60f81 in the system. When trying to import this object again or any other object of entity A with the same AMID.

    There is an entity A which has a field identifier with a field value pattern. The system already has an object of entity A with identifier A-0001. When trying to import any object of entity A with the identifier A-0001 again.

    • SET_NULL

    • FAIL

    Entity A has a sub-entity Entity B. Entity B then will have a field like ref_a which will store the id of its parent object of Entity A. When trying to import an object of Entity B which has a value in the ref_a field, but there is no object of Entity A with that id.

    Challenges

    GENERATE

    • Generates a new value based on the field type or using the field value pattern

    • Not available for PK and UNIQUE if field type is not UUID

    • For AMID, replace all objectReference

    • For PK, replace all FK

    • How to handle composite PK?

    • Should we generate PK for other types? If so then how?

    SET_BY_USER

    • Input from the user

    • Not applicable for conflicts that are gathered during import

    • Requires user interaction

    SET_NULL

    • Applicable for nullable or not required fields

    SET_NULL_OR_REGENERATE

    • Set null if nullable or generate a value (dummy) based on the field type

    • Applicable for conflicts that are gathered during import

    TRIM_EXTRA

    • Trim the extra part

    • Applicable for varchar fields with a length set

    IGNORE

    • Ignore this object and it’s descendants

    • Applicable only for root system entities

    • Highest precedence

    • Ignore the whole subtree for this object as well

    REPLACE_WITH_CONFLICTEDEXISTING

    • Ignore this object and it’s descendants but keep the relation objects (AKTOR_RELASJON, TAG_MAPPING, OBJECT_RESTRICTION)

    • Import relation objects but change the relation to connect to the conflicted row

    • 2nd highest precedence

    • Ignore the whole subtree for this object as well

    • Keep the relation objects but change their FK

    • Should we consider the possible new sub-entity objects?

    • Should we consider the possible changes for this subtree?

    FAIL

    • Throw an error and abort

    • Applicable for conflicts that are gathered during import

    ...

    • Support Excel import

    • Support Composite PK Support and FK conflict

    • Generate other types than UUID

    • Optimize using temporary table and/or files rather than the memory

    • Add more types of solutions
