Upload Options
Delete files after upload
Files will be deleted from the data folder after having been successfully uploaded. This is the default setting.
Move uploaded files to the \backup folder
A folder called backup will be created in the data folder in the network share and the files will be moved there after successful upload.
Auto-Upload
You can turn off automatic upload with the checkbox, Globally turn off auto-upload. Useful for testing. Audit files collect in the data folder without being uploaded. They can be manually uploaded by clicking the Upload Audits button in Network View.
Overwrite User-Defined Data
Normally, as a result of uploading interactive audits, you would want new user-defined data (e.g. Assigned User) to overwrite older data. This can be turned on here (off by default).
Domain and Asset Names in Upload Identification Process
When a network contains computers, commonly "white-box" or no-name brands, that return generic identification data, such as To Be Filled By O.E.M. in place of a serial number, these computers can't be reliably identified using serial-number data. Asset names will change as new audit data is processed, and it can lead to duplicates.
In this case, the solution is to treat the domain name and asset name as the dominant data used for identification instead of the serial number. Because the name is now of paramount importance, if a computer is renamed, the identification will fail and you'll get two entries for the same computer with different names, so it is not advisable to change an asset's name.
