Transfer Question - Demitasse - 07-20-2026
I am setting up a new tablet but not transferring anything from the old one.
Assuming I am letting MS handle files, I am concerned that I might inadvertently delete the files from the original source. Is the preferred method to first copy all pdfs from a source to the tablet rather than importing directly to the database?
I am aware that I do not need to select 'delete files after importing' but is there a warning if I mistakenly selected delete after importing?

If you import files from any source and you are letting MobileSheets manage your files, copies of those files will be stored in the MobileSheets storage location (Settings->Storage->Set the MobileSheets Storage Location). It won't cause any problems if you delete files after they are imported (unless you are deleting the files under the storage location, as that would cause a problem).
