About Enterprise Talk
The Enterprise Talk TSI enables users to import data from another application or data source into Planon ProCenter and to export data from Planon ProCenter to an XML/CSV.
Users can be authorized for using Enterprise Talk. The data imported into or exported from Planon ProCenter , however, is not subject to authorization.
Enterprise Talk is designed to import and retain all data until it stops. In other words, if the process is interrupted after importing 999 records, these 999 records will remain in the database.
Enterprise Talk can be used to achieve the following objectives:
• To support a Planon ProCenter implementation process by importing data from legacy applications into Planon ProCenter .
• To interface Planon ProCenter with other applications by sharing information. For example, by interfacing a Financials Management system with Planon ProCenter , you could import invoice amounts as actual costs into Planon ProCenter .
• Enterprise Talk is not meant to transfer configuration from test to production. Configuration information (FieldDefiner, TSIs, layouts, filters, alerts, reports, etc.) are meant to be transferred with Configuration Transfer.
 | For Business Intelligence tooling it is possible to export configuration and authorization information. |
• To interface with mobile devices for survey management. Survey data is exported from Planon ProCenter and is imported into mobile devices ready for conducting maintenance surveys. When done, the survey data can be imported into Planon ProCenter .
| | Enterprise Talk cannot be used to delete data from Planon. |
SDI Configuration
Similar to Enterprise Talk, you can use SDI Configuration to import data in Planon. SDI Configuration, however, only works with data onboarding definitions, which are not shown in Enterprise Talk. For more information about SDI Configuration, see SDI Configuration.
