Load info for many Problem Reports

Load info for many Problem Reports

We routinely load Documents and WTParts, but currently have a different challenging situation.


We are using a sub type of Problem Report to take the place of a paper form and process (unrelated to Problem Reports - this is just a convenient object type to use in Windchill).


There are about 300+ of these paper forms, duly routed and approved, and with data that matches attributes for the new sub type. All the info from these paper forms is in a spreadsheet.


Question: Is there any way to "bulk load" a few hundred Problem Reports into the system?

You can also download the windchill loader documentation from ptc.com for more details.

A bulk loader for PR's is actually probably one of the easiest loaders to create. You just literally create a new ChangeIssue object, set all the needed info (name, priority, category, etc), and then the changehelper has a 'save' for PR's:

pr = (WTChangeIssue)ChangeHelper2.service.saveChangeIssue(pr);

If you want more detailed info just let me know.

Thanks
