Provides options that control how Smart 3D model objects are written to the output .datal file.
Filter
Specifies the filter to use to identify the model objects for export.
Description

When you export Smart 3D data using batch processing, the software creates a new folder called PDMSExportBatchJob_<timestamp> in the output folder. The software places the output .datal file in the new folder.
-
The software emails the generated .datal files to the user defined in the Address Book on the Schedule Batch dialog box. See Batch Services in the Smart 3D Installation Help.
Mapping file
Indicates the mapping file to use in the export process. The mapping file is a Microsoft Excel workbook that is used to map all the objects and their properties in Smart 3D and PDMS. See Appendix: Smart 3D Export to PDMS Workbook.
Log file

Generate separate file for each discipline
Creates a separate output .datal file for each discipline. Exporting Smart 3D model data by discipline reduces .datal file size and assists in identifying and resolving export issues.
OK
Exports the data as specified and closes the Export Model to PDMS Datal dialog.
Apply
Exports the data as specified without closing the Export Model to PDMS Datal dialog.
Submit Job
Schedules the batch job to export the data as specified. See Batch Services in the Smart 3D Installation Help.
Cancel
