When you export files to a target system, the import mapping maps a file object type, (for example SPFDesignFile) and creates a property with a Check Staging File Exists action, which is attached with the full file path of the file stored in SPFLocalFileName.

During the export process, all of the local staging files found are uploaded to the target system file services. The export process then creates all of the design files and saves the files into the vaults.

This mapping uses the Check Target System File Exists action, which ensures that the file is uploaded correctly using the path that is accessible by the target system server.

The target system loading will stop an export that contains an object with more than one property with a Check Staging File Exists or Check Target System File Exists action. This is because an object that represents a file can only have one file attached to it in SmartPlant Foundation. Additionally, the export process checks for any updates to an existing file object and warns the user that those updates are not supported. These update warnings are ignored so that the load can continue.
