Importing CAD-related business objects
When importing CAD-related business objects (
drawing definitions,
import definitions and
mappings) the following limitations apply:
• WebDAV content (e.g. referenced CAD drawings) will not be handled by Configuration Transfer.
• An imported CAD drawing definition will always be in status 'Under construction'.
• Importing a CAD drawing definition will fail when the target system already contains a CAD drawing definition with an identical name that is in status 'Completed'.
• Importing a CAD drawing definition will create and update child BOs (e.g. CAD Field Mappings) but will not delete them.
• Behavior will be undefined when certain business objects are not uniquely identifiable. This is the case in the following situations:
◦ When multiple CAD linked business objects have the same name, the same subtype, and reference the same CAD drawing definition.
◦ When multiple CAD business object mappings have the same subtype, reference the same CAD Layer, and reference the same CAD linked business object.
◦ When multiple CAD field mappings reference the same business object and Business Object field, and reference the same CAD linked business object.
◦ When multiple CAD import definitions have the same code and name.
◦ When a CAD import definition references a user report through the fields Additional floor info (AdditionalFloorInfo) or Additional space info (AdditionalSpaceInfo) and multiple user reports with that name exist.
