Asset Tree Export and Import

In version 8.0 and higher of FactoryTalk AssetCentre, the Import/Export utility allows for multiple options of importing and exporting the asset tree. Users can select full and partial exports, as well as automated asset creation. In the initial release of this utility, archive assets (files/folders/binders) are not available for import/export operations.

In versions prior to 8.0, The FactoryTalk AssetCentre Asset Tree Import/Export utility is still available, but with less functionality. The utility can be used to export part or all of the asset tree in one FactoryTalk AssetCentre server, then import the section into an existing asset tree. The process will strip out the properties of the exported assets (leaving the original assets unchanged), allowing for configuration once imported to the new system.

See Knowledgebase Document ID: QA6509 - FactoryTalk AssetCentre Asset Tree Import/Export Utility to download the utility, and for more detailed information on its usage.
