Importing and exporting ITPs

Top  Previous  Next

As well as importing and exporting single and multiple ITPs, you can import a file that gives an association between ITPs and Schedule Items. These functions are available from the context menu of the main ITP grid (right click on the ITP grid, and expand the File submenu).

 

Exporting

To export one or more ITPs select them in the grid and choose File=>Export ITP from the context menu. You will notice that their are two export options - Single File or Separate Files. If you have more than one selected, the former creates a single file containing all of the ITPs you have selected. If you select separate files, a new file is created for each ITP.

 

Importing

To import an ITP, use the File=>Import ITP option from the context menu. Select a .cpx file and it will be imported.

 

Exporting Schedule vs. ITP

To export an ITP/Schedule, use the File=>ITP vs Schedule Export. This creates a file containing the links you have created between your schedule items and ITPs. You will be prompted to remove the trailing letters from schedule items. This allows you to make the relationship specific to the schedule number, independent of any trailing characters such as P which may only indicate that the item is provisional. Select yes or no as appropriate.
