Hi there,

Our team ran preprocessing steps for our functional data and would like to skip the default pipeline in CONN to proceed with denoising. I imported the anat files, smoothed func files (preprocessing already completed), GM/WM/CSF MNI-space probability masks under ROI, and even the 1st-level covariate data (.txt files for motion parameters [rot & tans x y z], framewise displacement, csf, global signal, wm). 

I made sure not to input anything into the Preprocessing box on the gui. I hit 'Done', as DENOISING is still greyed out, and it begins the process (Steps 1-7; currently at Step 4/7: Importing functional data). Is this still attempting to preprocess the already processed data? Is there a specific way to skip the preprocessing step altogether? I've seen a few posts here regarding this, but cannot determine the exact sequence of steps and info needed to skip the preprocessing and jump to denoising. Any guidance would be appreciated.
