Import a Calendar Structure

  • The calendar export produces an Excel file with a complete set of calendar data: the base calendar, any reporting calendars, and any resource calendars. If you want to import calendar data from another software tool into EVMax, you can use the EVMax export file as a model to build the data extract from the other tool.
