Import Resources: Overview

The i-lign tool has the ability to import existing resource information. This feature is particularly useful in situations where multiple users need to be created in i-lign, for instance at implementation time, or adding another team to the i-lign user base.

Microsoft Project Import Procedure

Follow these steps to import a MS Project file into i-lign. (This option is only available in Microsoft Project 2002 or higher.)

i-Vision

i-Vision provides visualisation of key information in a way that is dramatically different to conventional reporting or standard view screens.

Can an i-lign schedule be exported to Microsoft Project ?

The export will output the i-lign schedule data (tasks, milestones, constraints, and resource allocations) in an .xml format that can be read by MS Project 2002 and above.

Importing XML file problems

Schedules that are exported to XML and then re-imported without saving them in MS Project will not be imported correctly.

MS Project importing and exporting in active projects

Avoid creating a schedule in Microsoft Project, importing and updating it in i-lign, then exporting to Microsoft Project and then repeating the process.
