Intelligent PIDs adding arrows to drawings when importing to Data Manager ?

[Sonny_Dethier]

I exported PIDs data from Data Manager to an Excel file that I gave to the process engineer's group.

They gave it back with columns completed like operating conditions dans from, to, etc.

I imported that data into Data Manager and doing so, Plant 3D checks out all the implicated drawings and opens them to process the information, then saves and checks the drawings back in.

After that was done, I opened the drawings and in many, arrows were added and valves were displaced.

Is this a normal occurence or did something really weird happen ?

Thanks for your help,

@Sonny_Dethier ,

which arrows have been added?
like flow arrows?
I didn't know that we can also make graphical changes when importing Excel lists.
We need more information as I am still missing the overall context.

Hello Hartmut,

Flow arrows were added.

I added a couple screenshots so you can see before and after the data import.

Thanks for your help!

@Sonny_Dethier ,

so HV-01 shows that it was not properly connected to the SLine.
The flow arrows are set because they are configured in the SLine.
The rest looks OK.
