Exporting ICD Data
You can export ICD data in .zip file format so that it can be imported into an installation of Capital.
When you create a .zip file for export, the system creates two .xml files, one (icd.xml) for the ICD and the second (librarydevice.xml) for the library part associated with the ICD.
Prerequisites
If a restricted domain has been assigned to the ICD then you must have the requisite domain access rights otherwise the export will fail and an error message will be displayed.
Procedure
- Select the ICD you wish to export from the list displayed and click the icon to access More Options.
- Select Export from the options list.
Results
The exported ICD is automatically saved as a .zip file in the Download directory of your computer.
