6.2.5. InTakt Excel Sheet

The InTakt Import Manager allows you to import entire takt plans created using the InTakt software.  The phases, locations, takt activities, durations, colors and all logic ties will import.  vPlanner will maintain the task id from InTakt and stores it in the ExternalID field for future reference. 
Steps for a Successful Import:
  • In the InTakt software export your project to the Excel format.
  • Open the Excel file in vPlanner and click Next.
  • The next page is simply a preview of the contents of the Excel file (read-only). Click Next (lower right)
  • The next page will show all the phases as defined in the Excel file.  Pick the phase names that you wish to import.  You can make multiple selections or a single selection.
  • The next page will show the tasks of the selected phase or phases (read-only).  Click Next to continue.
  • The next page will show the converted tasks to vPlanner tasks and attributes.  Make sure to review where the phases and locations, and colors are stored in User fields.
  • Click Next to preview the tasks in the vPlanner format.  You can select and delete tasks and logic that you do not wish to import at this point.
  • Click Import to import the result into vPlanner. 
The results will not be shown in the Manage View and you will be switched to offline mode.  You can save or ignore the results like any other tasks in offline mode.
