Importing and exporting structures and items

Exporting items or structures

Multi-Structure Manager uses PLM XML to export and import data. To use this, appropriate transfer modes must be created that select the correct data to export. You create these transfer modes in the PLM XML application.

For more information, see Tc XML and PLM XML Configuration for Data Import and Export.

You can export any of the following from a collaboration context:

  • BOM lines Any components attached to the BOM line are also exported.

  • Product structure If the product structure includes multiple views, all the views are also exported.

  • Operations Any consumed items, resources, and plant data attached to the process structure are also exported.

  • Process structure

  • Plant structure

  • Structure context

  • The complete collaboration context and all the structure contexts it contains

There are various methods used to export structures.

For more information about importing structures, see Teamcenter Basics.
