Using transfer modes in Excel templates

Transfer modes combine rules and property sets to define what additional data is exported when an object is selected for export.

You can specify transfer modes in the Excel template rule table. If the object being exported has an associated transfer mode that matches the transfer mode specified in the template, the secondary objects indicated in the transfer mode are processed. The secondary objects are processed through the rule table, and objects that match the rules are exported.

Syntax: {%T-Transfer-Mode-Name}

Administrators create transfer modes using the PLM XML/TC XML Export Import Administration application. You can specify a transfer mode for each rule in a Microsoft Excel rule table.

Syntax rules

• Do not include any spaces when specifying a transfer mode.
• Only the Transfer-Mode-Name is case sensitive.
