1. Reporting Keys: Importing Keys from FFKI

2. Offline Import Functionality
The Offline Import functionality provides the ability to submit a Computer Build Report (CBR) or Product Bind Report (PBR) when offline.

3. Offline Import Functionality
This option can be utilized when there is no network connectivity or if the proper bandwidth is not available.
A partner can download the file details required and send data in an XML format to their up-level partner in MDOS.
For more information, see the CBR section of the User Manual.

4. Note The offline process is not recommended.
The submission process through MDOS is still the recommended method.
The CBR Auto-Submit process is ideally preferred.

5. Example Contoso Factory is the FFKI for ABC Design House (the IDH).
Contoso Factory does not have reliable network connectivity from their remote location, so they utilize the Offline Import functionality to submit a Computer Build Report (CBR) back to their up-level partner ABC Design House.
Contoso Factory has previously downloaded the file details that are required, so they are able to create the CBR report offline in an XML format to ABC Design House.
ABC Design House then can import the data, add additional report details if desired, and submit the report to Microsoft.
NOTE: File details that are required must be previously downloaded from MDOS by DLP.
