Defining Business Flows

To move data between applications, you first need to define business flows to determine what data will move between application deployments and the direction in which it will move. You can create multiple business flows.

Note: A Primavera application must be on at least one side of the business flow, either delivering or receiving information.

To define a business flow:

  1. Select Flow Type and choose one of the following business flow types:
    • Import Master Data: Select to move master data from an application deployment into a Primavera application deployment. Master data includes global data such as dictionary items.
    • Export Master Data: Select to move master data from a Primavera application deployment into another application deployment.
    • Import Project Data: Select to move project data from an application deployment into a Primavera application deployment.
    • Export Project Data: Select to move project data from a Primavera application deployment into another application deployment.
    • Master Data: Select to export or import master data between distinct environments of P6 application deployments. For example, export master data from a P6 Testing environment to a P6 Production environment.
    • Project Data: Select to export or import project data between distinct P6 environments of P6 deployments. For example, export project data from a P6 Testing environment to a P6 Production environment.
  2. Select Business Flows.
  3. Select Add.
  4. Follow the Add Business Flow wizard to define which project data or master data will move between the applications. Select Save.
