We recommend using a text editor like Notepad to modify your CSV files to avoid any unexpected results.

  1. In the main toolbar, click Create New Job to open the New Job Wizard.

  2. On the Basic Settings page, provide a description for the job.

    Job Management automatically allocates the job a numerical ID, which is displayed in HxGN SDx. This number can be configured to match an existing engineering numbering system (ENS) found in the target system. For more information, see Configure the Engineering Numbering System (ENS).

  3. In the Job Definition box, select a previously configured job definition.

  4. In the Target System for Validation box, select one of the existing target systems to be used for validating the exported data.

  5. In the Target System for Export box, select one of more of the existing target systems.

    The target systems selected for validation and export do not need to be the same. You can have multiple target systems to export data to, but you can only have one target system set up as the validation system.

  6. Select the Suppress ENS check box to suppress the creation of objects with ENS in the target system for this job.

    By default, this option is not selected and the objects are created with ENS in the target system after export if ENS is configured in the target system.

  7. Click Next.

  8. On the Target System Configuration page, select the target system configuration level for the new job.

  9. Choose the status to use for the data in the target system configuration by clicking the Selected check box beside the status required.

  10. Click Next.

  11. On the Files to Import page, click Browse to a file to attach to locate the import file, and click Open to attach the file to the import definition.

    As the import file loads, it is validated against the validation rule sets and rules added to the import definition for the target system. If the file does not pass validation, a validation failure is recorded in the validation report. The export is blocked until the validation has been reviewed in Desktop Client. For more information, see Validation reports and Approve the validation report.

    • A check mark appears in the Has Headers column beside any file attached to the import definition that contains column headers.

    • If you want to import a file that does not have any column headers, such as an inverted CSV file that has data in the first row of the file, then click Browse to a file without headers to attach . When selected, this feature allows Data Validator to consider if the first row of any file is a column header or not. For more information about importing data from a CSV file without a header row, see Generate raw attribute property mappings for export.

    • When files have been imported and attached to the import definition, a green check mark appears in the Files Attached column.

  12. Click Next.

  13. On the Prompted Values page, add or select values for the import mapping for the file to be imported, as configured in the job definition.

    In the following example, you are prompted for values for EQDescription, As Built Config, and TGDescription.

    When a job is run, the job definition import mapping is dependent on the column type selected for each configured column header. If you selected a column type that included prompted values, you are prompted to select the values when creating a job. For more information on selecting prompted values, see Create a new column header.

  14. Click Next. The Summary page displays a summary of the complete job.

    • You can review or edit the job components by clicking on any of the sections to modify the details.

    • Modifying any of the previous settings invalidates subsequent settings for the job, which have to be entered again.

  15. Click Finish. The new job appears in the list in the main job management pane and starts automatically.
