German term or phrase: das zeitsparende Einlesen der Datenbestände (mit Programm xy)
Having trouble with this. I'm wondering about "time-effective" and "streamlined" for "zeitsparend". More importantly I'm not sure if "Einlesen" in this case should be "input" or "import" or something completely different. I also have "Datenausgabe in verschiedenen Medien" in the next sentence: similarly, should it be "output" or "export"?

agree  Armorel Young: although I think I'd go for efficient for zeitsparend - time-effective sounds more like a translation than a phrase one would use in real life
