Importing and Exporting

There are several different ways to move data among projects and databases in Synthesis-enabled applications. All of these types of import/export are accessed via the Import/Export Wizard. To open the Import wizard, choose Project > Management > Import/Export > Import.

To open the Export wizard, choose Project > Management > Import/Export > Export.

Select the option for the type of import or export you want to perform and click OK to open the appropriate import/export tool. The available types of import/export include:

Importing entire projects into the current database from another database, or exporting entire projects from the current database to another database.
Importing or exporting specific project items (e.g., a diagram or allocation analysis in BlockSim, or a folio or tool in Weibull++/ALTA) between existing projects.
Importing or exporting resources between existing projects.
Importing data from other file formats, including previous versions of the applications, as well as Excel® and delimited text files.

If you need to import data from an existing repository to a new repository, see Import from Existing Repository.
