Step 5 — Import Report
The Import Report is the fifth and final step of the Data Import Wizard.
Workflow
After you click Finish in Step 4 of the Data Import Wizard, two progress bars inform you about the status:
Depending on the size of your dataset, the selected discretization algorithms, and the number of Missing Values, this may take anywhere from a fraction of a second to several minutes.
Once completed, BayesiaLab opens up a new Graph Window with all imported variables now represented as nodes.
At the same time, a prompt appears, offering you the Import Report.

Note that this report is entirely optional. So whether you display it or not does not affect the completion of the Data Import Wizard.
Click Yes to bring up the Import Report window.
The first column displays the names of the imported variables.
The second column displays the type associated with each variable.
For a Weight variable, no further information is available or provided.
For a Learn/Test variable, the association with BayesiaLab's Learn and Test labels is shown, plus the corresponding number of cases.
The third column shows all States of each variable, if applicable.
The right part of the report depends on the variable type:
Discrete Variables:
The report shows each state and, adjacent to it, any aggregations that were performed. Furthermore, the color of the rightmost cell in the row highlights that an aggregation took place.
Continuous Variables:
The names of the discretized states are shown.
The next two columns to the right report the lower and upper thresholds for each interval.
The rightmost column is colored according to the discretization algorithm used.
Asked/Obtained indicates the requested discretization algorithm versus the one that was used as the fallback option.
Note that you can save this Import Report as an HTML file, so you can subsequently open the fully-formatted report in Excel or any other spreadsheet software.
