Smart data import (from CSV/XLS) ?

[MarcinG]

Hello,

Is there any way to import a list , that would contain e.g parent and child, allowing EA to create both parent, child, and dependency between them (specified in the list) ?  Not even dreaming about specifying different packages to import parent and child, but such small magic would already be helpful.

Any hints here :-) ?

Best regards
Marcin

I'm not sure if any of the built-in features supports this, but you can build something like that yourself in Excel using a bit of VBA code.

If you want you can start from my excel import/export tool, and add the ownership relation as a new feature.

Yes, Sparx has MDG Office Integration Suite available which has Excel Import/Export and is pretty easy to configure your mapping profile and re-use them for synchronization as well when you want to update later. Also, you can have Parent-Child relations, Connectors, etc.

Also, you can check Word, PowerPoint, and SharePoint integrations which could be useful exploring these which can make life easier when you are dealing with Model element creations.
