Zip Archive Import
Determines if imported files are compressed when they are archived.
When the archive step moves a processed import file to the archive folder, enabling this compresses it to a GZip (.gz) file. When disabled, the file is copied as-is. In both cases an archive file that already exists under the same name is preserved by adding the batch start time to the new file's name.
When to Change This Setting
Keep the default Y to save space in the archive folder. Disable it when archived files must remain directly readable without decompression.
