CAD business object mapping
Mapping of the Planon ProCenter business objects (assets, persons, spaces, flexible workspaces, floors, ‘Rent to’ and ‘Rent from’ units) with the entities (polylines and blocks) of an AutoCAD drawing.
The CAD business object mapping is done to import data of an AutoCAD drawing into Planon ProCenter.
There are types of mappings are available:
CAD polyline BO mapping: applies to floors, spaces, ‘Rent to’ and ‘Rent from’ units. You can map the net or gross polylines of an AutoCAD drawing with the floors, spaces, ‘Rent to’ and ‘Rent from’ units of Planon ProCenter.
CAD block BO mapping: applies to assets, persons and flexible workspaces. You can map the blocks in an AutoCAD drawing with the assets or persons of Planon ProCenter.
CAD layer mapping: applies to construction data such as pillars and staircases. During import, the elements on the layer will not be imported as business objects, but are converted either as CAD Integrator Constructional drawing or CAD Integrator FM drawing.
