A PHN/other organisation can receive an extract via email, ftp or other method; these extracts can be imported manually following the steps below.
We recommend using the 'Send To PAT CAT' from CAT4 for all data if possible!

Figure 64: Select File for Import
NOTE: Ensure the file has the text "DEIDENTIFIED" or "DEIDENTIFED_GTAGGED", and "-data" in the name. If you have compressed the extract file select the ".zip" file, otherwise select the "...data.xml" file.

NOTE: If the extract is for a Practice that does not appear in the drop down list, you need to add the practice as detailed in Section 4.

Wait for the file to be imported into PAT CAT – you can check the Request Queue for progress and see the Request History for already imported files.
NOTE: This can take some time; particularly if there are others extracts waiting in the queue.
