• To define the direction of the vein in materials that have a model with the vein, you must insert the column AlinhamentoVeioItem in the column of import.
• To indicate the direction of the vein, use vertical, horizontal, or none if there is no vein.
• If the AlinhamentoVeioItem column was not inserted in the import, the direction of the vein will be considered the LarguraItem (item width) as dimension.
• To import projects you can only set panel or edge tapes code. If the code is correct, the material will be linked directly to the item being imported.

Simplified Configuration

As of version 1.2.4.6, the import functionality for the simplified mode, was made available.

 

To use the import feature:

 

1. In the Main menu, access the Projects tab;

2. On the material tab, in the Unit of Measure option, select the unit of measure for the file to be imported;

3. On the material tab, click the Import button;

4. In the displayed window, look for the file saved on your computer, which should be imported;

• The import will only be performed if the file is configured with the same standard that is exported.

 

Import requirements

 

- For the panel field, description, height, width and thickness are mandatory;

 

- For item fields, length and width are mandatory;

 

- When the optional fields are not informed, default values are registered.

 

 

Default values

When the fields do not have registered information, the following default values will be automatically filled:

- Item: nothing
- Quantity: 1
- Rotate: 1
- Edge Length: 0
- Edge Width: 0
- Edge Code: nothing
- Observation: nothing

 

IMPORTANT:

• When importing an item that has an edge band, but in Cut Pro, it does not have any edge band with the same code shown in *.csv, the import will NOT be performed;

• When importing a *.csv with a panel with the same characteristics as another plate that already exists in one of the tabs in Cut Pro, the existing plate will have all of its items replaced by the items that are in the imported *.csv file. Otherwise, a new tab will be created for the new plate described in the file, with its respective items.
• In *.csv, the decimal separator is the period ( . ) And the column separator is the semicolon ( ; ).
