# Import Maitre'D 2003 Archives

Use this function to make 2003 archives usable in Maitre'D 2005 after upgrading from Maitre'D 2003. The 2003 archived checks and summaries, needed for some reports, are unreadable because of the modified Item structure.

{% hint style="info" %}
NOTE: Start this function during a quiet period of the day, because depending on the number of files, it could take some time.
{% endhint %}

**Archives**

Disable the Checks if you prefer to do these on separate days.

**Sum**

Disable the Summaries if you prefer to do these on separate days.

**With Trace**

Enable this option to display the conversion time taken for each archive file.

#### Import Maitre'D 2003 Archives with Item files <a href="#importmaitred2003archiveswithitemfiles" id="importmaitred2003archiveswithitemfiles"></a>

This function works like the former Import function above, but it also extracts from the last 31 accounting days archives the content of file 7 and 8, to get information such as the PLU, for example, for reporting purposes.
