Is it possible to populate a global activity code library by importing from a spreadsheet. I have about 800 notification numbers to manually type into the global activity code library, and each has a description of a work order number... at the rate im going its going to take me days, and manual input of 7 diget numbers is screaming for errors. I have everything on a spreadsheet and if i could just import it it would save me pain-staking hours. Thanks in advance

    Ken,
    Lets first of all presume that your using P5.
    That being the case if you create the headers for your codes in a project and then export this to excel, ensuring you select all of the appropriate fields/columns.
    You should then be able to populate the excel sheet with a sufficient amount of activities and code them with your codes, and re-import that data.

    Also if you are using P5 had you thought about keeping the code at an EPS level instead of a global level - just may save on some clutter for your other users??

    Hope this helps
    Andy
