# Why I don't see the Import tab in Organization Settings Page?

Why I don't see the Import tab in Organization Settings Page?

If the **Import** tab is missing from the **Organization Settings** page, it is likely due to the **initial import feature not yet being initialized** for the workspace. This feature must be triggered before the tab becomes visible for ongoing use.

### How to Make the Import Tab to Show

For first-time imports—especially when uploading **Time Entries**—the system requires initialization. This step is only needed once per workspace. When importing data through the **Import Modal** (available in areas like **Projects**, **Time**, or other supported spaces), the **“Initialize Imports”** button will appear, as shown below:

### Steps to Initialize the Import Feature:

1.  Open the **Import** **Modal** from any of the following spaces:
    
    -   **Portfolio Page**
        
    -   **Project Page**
        
    -   **Workload Page**
        
    -   **Budget Space**
        
    -   **Planner Space**
        
    -   **Organization Settings**:
        
        -   **Members Tab - Department/Skill/Region/Office/Discipline**
            
        -   **Timesheet Tab**
            
2.  Select any data type from the dropdown (e.g., **Time Entries**)
    
3.  Click the **“Initialize Imports”** button.
    
4.  Once initialized, the **Import** tab will automatically appear under **Organization Settings** for future access.
    

### Do I Need to Initialize Every Time?

No. Initialization is required only once per workspace. After this setup, the **Import** tab remains available for all future uploads.
