Copy the format-specific custom mapping template file to a different folder location. When you upgrade Smart Interop Publisher, this prevents your customization from being overwritten. For your convenience, Smart Interop Publisher automatically creates a \3DInteropMappingFiles\CustomMappingFiles subfolder under your defined shared content location in which you can copy the custom mapping file.
-
Open the custom mapping template file and the SPIOPSchema.xlsx schema file to use as a reference.
-
In the ClassMap sheet:
-
Add a new row, and then enter the new class in the Source Class column.
-
In the Target Class column, type in the Smart Interop Publisher class name that relates to the class you are adding. Use the SPIOPSchema.xlsx to look up the available classes.
-
-
In the PropertyMap sheet:
-
Add a new row and enter the new class in the Source Class column.
-
In the Source Property column for the new class, type in the new property name.
-
In the Target Property column, type in a property from SPIOPSchema.xlsx that relates to your new property.
-
-
Repeat steps 2-3 for each new class and property.
In the example figure below, a new class called NewDuctClassA has been added with two properties: NewDuctDiameter and NewDuctWidth50. Although these additions are not actual classes and properties, you can see where they are added and the target information to which they can be mapped.
-
Save your edits to the mapping template file, and close it. Save the edited mapping spreadsheet file in the Microsoft Excel 97-2003 Workbook (.xls) format. If your target application is SmartPlant Foundation, see:
-
If your target application is Smart 3D, see Extend the Reference 3D schema.

Go to Set the custom option.
