If HFM.NET is giving you an error about importing the data, this is what you may have to do:
Fix for 670X WUs (MUST)
In order to successfully import the CompletedUnits.csv file into HFM.NET's Work Unit History, you will have to fix the data entry for
Project 670X only.
Step 1: Open the CompletedUnits.csv file in MS Excel 2007 (make a copy of it and work from that to avoid any data loss!)
Step 2: Search for 6701 and 6702 in the
ProjectID Column and changed the field in
Work Unit Name from this in red rectangle:
Step 3: To this, in green rectangle:
Do remember that you have to shift the entire row one cell back to align it with the rest of the table.
Here is the unaccepted data format for Project 670X: (taken from the original CompletedUnits.csv file)
Code: Select all
6701 p6701_VSD in POPC and water neutralized SMP2 D:\F@H SMP\ PantherX 69411 SMP GRO-A3 2.19 0:09:16 8840.32 15-Jun-10 1:59 AM 15-Jun-10 5:27 PM 5689 100 28637 (25/6/1)
Here is the accepted data format for Project 670X: (taken from the modified CompletedUnits.csv file)
Code: Select all
6701 SMP2 D:\F@H SMP\ PantherX 69411 SMP GRO-A3 2.19 0:09:16 8840.32 6-15-2010 1:59 AM 6-15-2010 5:27 PM 5689 100 28637 (25/6/1)
Once you have modified the CompletedUnits.csv file, try to import it into HFM.NET's Work Unit History. If it imports successfully, you can ignore the next step.
You can safely ignore the "duplicate records not imported" message since it was a software glitch in the previous versions of HFM.NET that has been corrected in this new version.
Fix for Date Format (Depends)
If fixing the 670X WUs didn't work for you and you are still can't import the CompletedUnits.csv file, you may have to do these additional steps:
Step 1: Change the date format in the
Download Date and
Completion Date (Observed) from this in the red rectangle:
Step 2: To this, in the green rectangle:
I chose the entire column, right click on the selection -> Format Cells -> Number Tab -> Category Date -> Type 3-14-2001 (second last option in the table). My location was already set as English (United States)
Here is the unaccepted date format: (taken from the original CompletedUnits.csv file)

After making the above changes, save the file as .csv (MS Excel may give an error but I ignored it) and then imported it into HFM.NET's Work Unit History without any issue.
You can safely ignore the "duplicate records not imported" message since it was a software glitch in the previous versions of HFM.NET that has been corrected in this new version. Enjoy the new features
Please note that the new WUs will be saved in WuHistory.db3 instead of CompletedUnits.csv file.
