Importing the template into PLM

Before you can define mapping rules for new or changed templates, you must import them in PLM. Re-importing a template will not remove any previously defined rules for this template.

To import a template:

  1. From the Application list in the upper left of the PLM Mapping Tool dialog box, select Autodesk Inventor.
  2. Click Import.
  3. In the Open dialog box that appears, select the template for which you want to define mapping rules and click Open. As a result, the template properties are displayed in the upper right section of the PLM Mapping Tool dialog box.
