Import Reports from Another Project

Reports definitions of a specified report type can be imported from another AVEVA Electrical project.

To import from another project:

1. Click From Other Project in the Import section of the List Tools - Reports tab (or the Manage Tab).

2. The Select an AVEVA Electrical Project window is then displayed. Select the required project and click Select.

3. The Select Type Report window is then displayed:

   

4. Select the type of report to be imported from the selected project and click OK.

5. The Report Import window is then displayed. This lists all the reports definitions in the selected project for the selected report type.

   

6. To select a report definition for importing, check its Select checkbox. Check the Select all checkbox to check all Select checkboxes.

7. When the required report definitions have been selected, click Import.

8. A progress window displays the progress of the import. The selected report definitions are then added to the project and are listed in the Reports grid.

   If an imported report has the same name as a report in the current project, it's name will be suffixed with "Copy of…".

   Note:
   It is the report definitions that are imported, not the reports themselves. Imported reports will therefore display data for the current project, as specified by the report definition, not data from the project they were imported from.

   Note:
   Properties defined in the source project that have values on imported reports are not imported. In other words, properties in the source project not defined in the target project will not be added to the list of properties in target project.
