Customizing Up-/Download

Allows up- and download of ProNovia product definitions.

Settings can be copied from one system to another, even if they are not linked with a transport system.
Customizing templates which are available for several ProNovia products can be loaded.

For importing and exporting customizing data, variants must be created first. They contain the settings which products, which tables, which part of the data shall be exported. Various variants are part of the default delivery. Therefore files (stands for one table) will be ignored, if the table is not part of the variant. However the actual content will not be compared to a possibly defined partial quantity acc. the variant. Always all data sets from one files are processed.

When option Replace completely (delete) is selected, the predefined partial quantity will not be regarded. All data sets which are in the partial quantity but not in the file will be deleted.

Solution / free ID variant	Export settings are selected by solution ID (or any free ID) and variant. Data to be exported can be maintained in the respective variant. Push button "Customizing" will directly start the configuration.
