Load Resource Files from Open Plan

A resource code file originating from Open Plan can be brought into Cobra. You can use a punctuated significant breakdown structure for resource codes in Open Plan and a non-significant breakdown structure for resource assignments in Cobra.

When loading code files from the schedule, Cobra compares the resource code with the format of the breakdown structure validating the resource assignments in Cobra. If a punctuated-significant format was used in the Open Plan resource code and a non-significant format is used in Cobra, Cobra removes the parent information from the resource code. Thus, a resource with an ID of LABOR.ENG.ENG01 would appear in Cobra as the resource assignment ENG01.
