Here’s how I import team file exports in my leagues:
When it’s time to sim, I go to the league server directory that holds the owners’ exports. I note the teams with team files newer than the newest league file. Then I boot up
OotP and go to ‘Team setup’ for each team with a new team file on the server. I hit ‘Import team from ftp’ and that does it. If the team’s file is invalid, I email the owner a note. I double-check each step.
kq76 has
suggested that commishes delete old team export files from their leagues’ ‘EXPIMP’ folder before importing in the new files. I used to do this when my own process included my downloading the team files manually into the folder, then simply using ‘Import team file’ because I thought it might be a more reliable way to transfer the files. To save time I skip that step now and use the direct ftp transfer.
