Schedule Excel Import/Export Improvements
We have some exciting news! A new improvement of Schedule Excel Import/Export has been officially launched.
You ask, we deliver! Now you had been asking for a unified Schedule Import/Export option. Our team has been hard at work to deliver that to you, so here are the changes:
What has been changed:
For the Import template:
- We have added the “Notes” column so you can bulk-add data for each task. Before, such data could not have been uploaded
- Start date/End date - there are now date time columns
- Support Start date/End as calculated data based on excel formulas. Ex. The Task end date is based on the calculation: Start date + number of days. Currently, the import does not recognize the value of the calculation which blocks the correct import
- Tasks & subtasks are imported together
For the Export template:
- Align export format with import --> column order, column names (Start date/End date as date time columns instead of date and time), format
Include in export data available in the Schedule: Spend, Progress, Notes column
What to do now?- Make sure you update your old Schedule templates to match the new Archdesk ones.
- From now on, when you need to change bulk the details of your Schedule of work, all you need to do is go to the Project > Schedule > Export arrow > Project Schedule Excel. Then open the file and make the necessary changes, go back to Archdesk and bulk upload the data. Changes will be instant!
- Run back to Archdesk and try the new Schedule Excel Import/Export immediately! Your feedback is important to us so don't hesitate to contact us at support@archdesk.com
