Shut down the system after data import. automatic

It is a suitable option for large files

@SoftTools59654: It's unclear what you mean by "shutdown the system". Are you suggesting an option such that the Zui app would quit at the end of a large data import? Or are you suggesting the shutdown of the entire workstation on which Zui is running?

@SoftTools59654: Thanks for clarifying. I expect this feature is unlikely to be added by the core Dev team as a Zui feature any time soon, though we can hold the issue open to see if other users weigh in with the same requirement to boost the priority. In the meantime, you should be able to achieve the functional equivalent by scripting something from the shell, e.g., to perform the data import using zed load and then having the same script find and kill the Zui process once the load operation completes.
