Process Overview

The general work process to use the generic mapping option is described below.

  1. Export your data to a .drv file format. The graphics data must be exported to a MicroStation V7 .dgn file. See Export to a .drv file format.
    -OR-
    Use Smart Interop Publisher initially to translate your data to generate a .drv file. Smart Interop Publisher generates .drv files for most source file types.

    SHARED Tip In this case, select the Generic mapping option when you are translating to get a .drv file.

    See Translate to Smart Models.

  2. Go to the Smart Interop Publisher install folder, and use the GenerateMappingTool.exe. The default location for the tool is [drive]:\Program Files\SmartPlant\Interop Publisher.

    See Use the GenerateMapping tool.

  3. Add your required classes and properties to the generated GenericToR3DMapping.xlsx spreadsheet file.

    See Add classes and properties to the generic mapping file.

  4. (Optional) If you are publishing to SmartPlant Foundation, configure the publish mapping in the Schema Editor to match any classes and properties you added to the generic mapping template file.

    See Edit the UIDs and Edit publish mapping for SmartPlant Foundation.

  5. Select the Generic option in Smart Interop Publisher so that the software uses your new mapping file. See Set the generic mapping option.

  6. (Optional) You can map graphics levels in CAD-based source files to levels in Smart Review so that you can create smaller Smart Model .vue files. Smart Interop Publisher provides a generic levels template file that can be read along with the generic property mapping files. See Use level mapping for graphics.
