2.8 Import a CAD file with a BOM file

PPS-Pro provides two ways to import a BOM-file:

1. Import via the “Import Data”-tab (see 2.8.1 on page 26).

This method will import a BOM-file to create or replace an MDF-file.

2. Import via the “Import BOM”-tab (see 2.11.1 on page 30).

This method will import a BOM-file to update component information in the

MDF-file.
