For details, see Managing Macros in the SIS Administration Guide.

Warning You can’t remove a macro that has dependents.

Install a new macro

  • Click Install.
    A Choose File button displays.

  • Click the Choose File button.
    An Open dialog box displays.

  • Navigate to and select the XML file for the macro you want to install.

    Warning The XML file must adhere to the SIS Macro XML schema defined for the SIS version.

    The SIS REM module installs the macro. If that SIS instance already has a macro with the same identity, the SIS REM module asks whether you want to replace the existing XML.
Note Changes to SIS macros do not take effect immediately. The SIS must explicitly reload its components to apply any changes.
