How to assign Xref Sub-layers to ACAD layers?

Situation:
In my current position, we use a 3D software for design then export top view and section views to ACAD as xref files.
These xref files have sub layers, for example, if I right click on the xref then "edit block in place" some lines are under a "future" sub layer, while others are under the "existing" sub layer.
Problem:
ACAD does not recognize these sub-layers; the whole xref is under the "0" layer.
Question:
Is there a way to link the "future" sub-layers in the xref file to the "future" ACAD layer?
In addition, all xref flies we export to ACAD for all projects have the same sub-layer names, is there a way to have ACAD recognize these sub-layers by name and assign it to the "future" layer in ACAD for every project automatically, so every time I export the views to ACAD the future parts will be under the "future" layer? (so I won't have to do it manually for every project I export to ACAD)
Thanks in advance for the help
