When importing Office Documents into wiki Pages, you need to configure the following settings:

SettingDescription
Target pageThis is read-only and shows where the content will be imported.
Overwrite existing contentThis option is available only when the target wiki Page already exists. It lets you choose whether to overwrite the existing content of the target wiki page or keep it unchanged.
Filter stylesThis is checked by default, strips out unnecessary styling information from the result. Uncheck this option if you want to preserve the exact look of the imported file.
Split documentIf checked, creates multiple Pages from a single office document (based on heading levels to split) and allows to select which heading levels to split.
Heading levels to splitChoose the heading levels to split the office content on; selected heading levels and their corresponding sections will be imported in separate child Pages, linked from the parent Page.
Terminal Child PagesThe checkbox is displayed only if you are an advanced user, and the current Page needs to be a terminal Page.

If the Page imported is terminal, and you checked the "Split document" box, you can configure the Page name of the splitted Pages:

SettingDescription
Heading namesthe heading name is used as the Page name; this option is the only one that makes sense when the target wiki Page is not terminal, which is why the "Child pages naming" field is not shown in this case
Main page name and headingthe heading name is appended to the name of the target wiki Page. For example, if the Page where you import the Office document is “Announcements” and one heading in the imported document is “News”, the resulting split Page will be named “Announcements-News” and will be created as a top-level Page.
Main page name and numberingan index (counter) is appended to the name of the target wiki Page. For example, if the page where you import the Office document is “Announcements” and the first heading in the imported document is “News”, the resulting split page will be named “Announcements-1” and will be created as a top-level Page.
