Repository.XFRACAS.ImportXFRACASXMLFile

You must have admin privileges in the XFRACAS entity in order to import data into it. In addition, the XML file must be in XFRACAS XML format in order to be successfully imported. The XFRACAS9/10 Import Business Logic (PDF) document provides a complete description of the XFRACAS XML format.
