Software Manager Reference
Perform this operation on the Wise Package Studio server
If you are working on a client computer and you mark this option, then this
operation is performed on the Wise Package Studio server. The Software
Virtualization Agent must be installed on the server computer. You must use a
UNC path to specify the imported package. If the package and the Software
Manager database reside on the server, this significantly improves the
performance of this operation for large packages. With Enterprise Management
Server, Security Setup determines whether this option appears.
Add to Revision Control
Mark this to add the package to Revision Control during import.
6. To assign the imported package to one or more groups:
a. Click Groups on the Import Type page. The Select Groups dialog box appears.

Note
If you will use Group Distribution, it is best to add packages to groups on the Group
Properties dialog box. The order in which you add packages to a group on the Group
Properties dialog box can affect the state of the package check boxes during
distribution.

The Wise Task Manager dialog box appears and remains open until the operation is

work in Wise Package Studio. From this dialog box, you can view a log file for the
import.
The .WVP file package is imported into the active Software Manager database.
