Synchronizing the entities location from Planon ProCenter
You can synchronize the location data of persons and assets (property and space in which persons or assets are located) from Planon ProCenter to Connect for AutoCAD.
When you synchronize your drawing with Planon ProCenter, entities that are present in Planon ProCenter but not in the drawing, will be placed in their respective spaces in the drawing.
First, check the Settings for inserting persons or assets to select an appropriate layer and block for inserting these entities into a drawing.
* 
To synchronize entities from Planon ProCenter to Connect for AutoCAD, you should assign a space for persons in Personnel Management and a space for assets in Asset Management. For more information on assigning a space to persons and assets, refer to Personnel Management and Asset Management of the Planon ProCenter user documentation.
Procedure
1. On the Context menu, point to Connect for AutoCAD and select Synchronize person locations to synchronize persons or Synchronize asset locations to synchronize assets.
2. When synchronizing assets, on the Load assets filter dialog, set the filter to synchronize relevant assets as described in Managing assets by filtering on classification group.
3. On the Synchronize person locations or Synchronize assets locations dialog box, select the appropriate options.
Refer to Synchronize assets locations fields for a brief description of these options.
4. Click OK to connect to Planon ProCenter to synchronize person or asset location data.
5. Click OK. Synchronization may take a few minutes to complete. Upon completion of synchronization, a summary of the synchronization results is displayed on the information dialog box.
* 
After synchronization, an extended log file (.log) with synchronization details is created in the folder specified in the settings for synchronization logs.
Now, you have synchronized person or asset location data from Planon ProCenter to Connect for AutoCAD. You will see the entities inserted on the drawing.
