Schedule Mapping Page of the Integration Wizard-Primavera
Use this page to define how the fields in the schedule map to the Cobra project.
Project Keys Tab
Use this tab to define how project fields map to the schedule.
If you are importing data into an existing project, the labels and Cobra validation files on this tab are based on the project properties for the selected project. Any control account or work package fields that are not defined in the project are hidden.
When creating a new project, the labels and validation files are based on the project template defined on the General tab of the Application Preferences dialog box. If a project template is not defined, the fields are based on the system defaults for new projects.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Schedule Fields | Use these fields to define the field in the schedule that contains the value for each Cobra field. Click
 to select a value for each of the fields below:
The values in these fields depend on the date field selected for Baseline and Forecast, and the scheduling tool you are importing from. You cannot import using the CA3 field unless a template project that defines this field is defined or you are importing into an existing project with this field defined. When importing data from any date field in Primavera, the following values are available in the
Control Account 1-3,
Work Package, and
CAM fields.

| Cobra File Used for Validation | Use the fields in this column to define the Cobra file to be assigned to the particular key field in Cobra. If the template does not have the required fields defined, the fields are enabled. Click
to select a file to validate each key against for new projects.
If you are importing into an existing project or if a template containing these fields has been defined for the application, the fields in this column are populated and disabled. Note: Cobra does not validate the
Milestone field.

to select a file against which each key for new projects is validated.
