Open Plan Library

This folder contains ancillary files (calendars, codes, resources, and views) that can be linked to projects.

Each type of ancillary file has its own subfolder. To assign an ancillary file or view to a project, drag the file from the Open Plan Library to the target project folder.

When you create an ancillary file, it is automatically added to the appropriate folder of the Open Plan Library. You cannot drag a file directly into the Open Plan Library.

Provided that you have sufficient rights and the file is not referenced by another file, you can delete it from the Open Plan Library. Doing so deletes both the actual data from the database and any links to that file that may exist.

The Open Plan Library contains the following folders:

  • Calendars: This folder contains all the calendar files currently defined in Open Plan.
  • Codes: This folder contains all the code files currently defined in Open Plan. In addition, each code file also contains a subfolder of code file views.
  • Resources: This folder contains all the resource files currently defined in Open Plan. In addition, each resource file also contains the following subfolders:
    • Views
    • Codes
  • Project Templates: This folder contains all the currently defined project templates in Open Plan.
  • Views: This folder contains all the currently defined views in Open Plan.

Click in the Open Plan Explorer to update the Open Plan Library folder when you perform any of the following actions:

  • Add, update, or delete ancillary files that are assigned to a project
  • Modify access rights in the ACL
  • Add, update, or delete calendar files, code files, currently defined project templates, resource files, and views in Open Plan Explorer
