This dialog appears when you select File } Export to MS-Project® XML File from the main menu of the application.
When requesting to export the scheduling and resource data into an XML file that is directly readable by MS-Project 2000 (or later), SuperPro Designer will always export the scheduling data for all operations, cycles, unit procedures for one or several (consecutive) batches; SuperPro Designer will also export resource consumption and cost-related data for one or more of the following resources:
● Labor
● Electrical Power
● Heat Transfer Agents
● Raw Materials
To exclude a certain class of resources from being exported to MS-Project, please un-check the corresponding entry.
Other options that can be set are the:
● File Name
By default the file name of the design case file name is used with the ‘.xml’ extension.
● Project Name
By default the file name of the design case file name is used as the project name.
● Number of Batches to Export
By default the number of batches displayed is determined so that all future batch starts will show in pattern that is already included in a chart (shifted by some time offset)
● Project Start
The project start date and time determined by the current date and time of the PC SuperPro Designer is running on.
