Importing and Exporting
The Import Wizard and Export Wizard provide easy and flexible methods for importing data into and exporting data from Windchill Risk and Reliability. Being able to import and export data provides the following benefits:
• Eliminates repetitive data entry.
• Decreases data entry time.
• Reduces the possibility of data entry errors.
You can save the settings for any import or export that you perform to an Import/Export Template file to expedite subsequent imports or exports using the latest data in the same file or a different file. You can also import or export data using any enabled Import/Export Template file in the Common Library.
Once an Import/Export Template file exists, you can use the Scheduled Import/Export Wizard to create a new task in the Windows Scheduled Tasks folder so that this particular import or export can be run at whatever interval you specify. Optionally, you can use the Windows Scheduled Task Wizard to enter the command line parameters required to create a scheduled import or export task.

• FRACAS Lookup Table
