# All Imported Certified Entities

{% hint style="warning" %} <mark style="color:red;">**Important Notice**</mark>

* Data listed under the **All Imported Data** tab is read-only, and actions such as editing or deleting are currently restricted.
* You can only update Certified Entity information under the **CB Imported Data** tab if you are the one who imported it. If you are not the primary contributor, you will not have permission to edit or delete this data.
* We are actively working on a feature to allow changing the primary contributor. Until this functionality is available, if your MNCB is the primary contributor and certification data requires updates, please contact them to make the necessary changes.

#### All Imported Data <a href="#all-imported-data" id="all-imported-data"></a>

To ensure compliance with MD requirements, Certification Bodies (CBs) can now review and access all their issued Certified Entities, even if they were imported into the IAF CertSearch database via an Accreditation Body (AB) or the MNCB.

**What do you need to know?**

There are several terms that you need to be aware of:

<table><thead><tr><th width="255">Terms</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>All Imported Data</strong></td><td>List of all Certified Entities to which the CB issued their certification. Some of these may be uploaded by contributors other than your organization, such as the AB or the MNCB.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>CB Imported Data</strong></td><td>All Certified Entities issued and imported by the Certification Body.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>View other version</strong></td><td>If the prioritized data is not the CB version, the system provides an option to view the prioritized version.</td></tr></tbody></table>

It consists of the following data fields:

<table><thead><tr><th width="253"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Activation Status</td><td>Status referring to the account status in IAF CertSearch </td></tr><tr><td>Certified Entity Name</td><td>Name of the Certified Entity</td></tr><tr><td>Country</td><td>Country where the Certified Entity is located </td></tr><tr><td>Confidential</td><td><p>Permission to access the Certificate Information in public, where value can either be:</p><ul><li>Confidential, <strong>limits</strong> the certification details to the public</li><li>Non-Confidential <strong>allows</strong> public access to the certification details</li></ul></td></tr><tr><td>Updated at</td><td>Date the certified entity data was last updated</td></tr><tr><td>Created at</td><td>Date the certified entity record was created</td></tr></tbody></table>

You can also refine the list by **Searching by Certified Entity Name** and **Filtering by Country, Confidentiality, and Certifications.**
