A CAD drawing definition defines the relation between the data in Planon ProCenter and the information in the AutoCAD drawing.

The CAD drawing definition allows you to define the entities in the drawing, so you can map them onto the Planon business objects.

For example, drawing entities such as polylines and blocks can be mapped onto CAD business objects such as floors, spaces, flexible workspace, assets, persons, ‘Rent to’ and ‘Rent from’ units.

Typically, a drawing definition is based on a single drawing. However, it can be used to import multiple drawings provided that the data structure is the same in all the drawings that are going to be imported.
