Import an S1000D Package
You can use Windchill’s import facility to import a package containing S1000D data into a product.
To import an S1000D package :
1. In the Folders view for the S1000D product, select the New Document action from the toolbar.
The New Document dialog box opens.
2. Select the type of data you want to import from the Type drop down list, for example Import from Compressed File for a zip file.
3. Browse for the file to be imported.
4. Assign attributes to the new document, as applicable.
5. Click Finish.
The data is imported into your product. Data modules and ICNs are inserted into the product’s information structure under the SNS location defined by DMC. DDN and DML are inserted into the information structure at their prescribed location.
The DDN and DML are imported at the lifecycle state Received.
All files are added to the Folders structure for the product, in the /S1000D folder as a default.
Import Status Reporting
A report is generated to confirm the status of a data import. The report provides messages to confirm whether actions have succeeded or failed:
• A list of all S1000D objects that have been successfully imported
• A list of S1000D objects that were ignored during import as they already exist in the product
• Reasons that an import failed
|
|
The import fails if the DDN in the package being imported references data modules that do not exist in the package.
|
• Flag of any mismatches between the product after the import and the imported DDN and DML
The reports are stored in the Validation folder of the Reports page for a product.
