&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;NA&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Background:&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This document can be referred to for steps on how to import files for creating a Managed WorkSpace for Substation for ProjectWise (PW) Integration along with Default Startup Project.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Requirements&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Managed configurations are supported in ProjectWise CONNECT Edition 10.00.02.265 and later. For details on specific version compatibility with OpenUtilities Substation refer to the below Wiki Link.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://communities.bentley.com/products/utility_network_analysis___design/w/utility_network_analysis_and_design_wiki/54410/compatibility-chart-openutilities-substation-connect"&gt;communities.bentley.com/.../compatibility-chart-openutilities-substation-connect&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This setup assumes a fully operational ProjectWise server and datasource, and that you have already installed:&lt;br /&gt;&amp;bull; ProjectWise Design Integration Server&lt;br /&gt;&amp;bull; ProjectWise Administrator&lt;br /&gt;&amp;bull; OpenUtilities Substation CONNECT&lt;br /&gt;&amp;bull; ProjectWise Explorer with the iDesktop Integration &amp;gt; Bentley Application Base Integration installation option turned on.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Steps to Accomplish&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Step 1:&amp;nbsp;Import Configuration Data Files into ProjectWise&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A managed configuration involves importing folders, subfolders, and files from the OpenUtilities Substation Configuration folder. This folder is installed during the installation of OpenUtilities Substation; located in &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenUtilities Substation CONNECT Edition&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Open ProjectWise Administrator and log in to your datasource.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Expand the WorkSpaces datasource node, then right-click &lt;strong&gt;Managed&lt;/strong&gt; and select &lt;strong&gt;Import Managed Configuration&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/413x346/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638270347769v2.png" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. When the Managed Configuration Import Wizard opens, click &lt;strong&gt;Next&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. On the Choose Desired Action page, select &lt;strong&gt;Import Data to ProjectWise, from File System&lt;/strong&gt; and click &lt;strong&gt;Next&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " height="467" src="/resized-image/__size/720x500/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638270834534v3.png" width="557" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5. On the Import and Validate ProjectWise Folder Structure and Documents page, do the following:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a. In the &lt;strong&gt;Local File System list&lt;/strong&gt;, navigate to and select the local Configuration folder you want to import by default the path is &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenUtilities Substation CONNECT Edition\Configuration.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;b. In the &lt;strong&gt;ProjectWise list&lt;/strong&gt;, create a &lt;strong&gt;new folder&lt;/strong&gt; or select an &lt;strong&gt;existing folder&lt;/strong&gt;. This is the folder in ProjectWise that the local WorkSpace will be imported into and managed from. If selecting an existing folder, it is recommended that the selected folder does not contain exiting files or folders. In this example, a new folder called &amp;ldquo;Substation CONNECT Managed&amp;rdquo; is created.&lt;br /&gt;To create the folder, right-click somewhere in the folder structure and select New Folder.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;c. Click the &lt;strong&gt;Map&lt;/strong&gt; button, then click &lt;strong&gt;Validate&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/720x500/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638271337716v4.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Note&lt;/strong&gt;:&amp;nbsp;The wizard compares the contents of the local folder with the contents of the selected ProjectWise folder. Because the ProjectWise folder we are importing to is empty, there will not be any files to compare, and so this process should be quick. In the future, you can use these same steps to update the ProjectWise folder with any local changes. It will compare the two directories and identify whether files exist or not. It does not compare the contents of the file, only whether the files exist or not.&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;6. In the &lt;strong&gt;Validation of File System Structure against ProjectWise&lt;/strong&gt;,&amp;nbsp;Deselect &lt;strong&gt;Datasets&lt;/strong&gt; folder,&amp;nbsp;Deselect &lt;strong&gt;Organization&lt;/strong&gt; folder, and Deselect the &lt;strong&gt;ConfigurationSetup.cfg&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;amp; &lt;strong&gt;WorkspaceSetup.cfg&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Attention&lt;/strong&gt;: While it is acceptable to import this folder, it may be unnecessary. Reducing the number of files being exchanged between the ProjectWise datasource and local machine translates into shorter download times and greater performance for your users. If this folder, its subfolders, and or files have been customized; you will want to select it for import.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/720x500/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/3817.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;7. Under the WorkSpace folder tree &lt;strong&gt;select / deselect&lt;/strong&gt; desired WorkSpace folder for importing along with their corresponding &amp;quot;&lt;strong&gt;WorkSpace.cfg&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;quot; file for example &lt;strong&gt;Substation ANSI-IEEE Example.cfg &lt;/strong&gt;and then select &lt;strong&gt;Resolve&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/720x500/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/7522.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. When the importing is &lt;strong&gt;finished&lt;/strong&gt;, click &lt;strong&gt;Next&lt;/strong&gt; and then click &lt;strong&gt;Close&lt;/strong&gt; to exit the Wizard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Step 2: Create Default Startup Project&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;OpenUtilities Substation requires a Default Startup Project when integrated with ProjectWise and is used to enable the Managed Configuration when OpenUtilities Substation is launched from Desktop.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Open ProjectWise Explorer and log in to your datasource.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Create a New Work Area under the Documents folder by &lt;strong&gt;right-clicking&lt;/strong&gt; on Documents and selecting &lt;strong&gt;New Work Area&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/500x200/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/8688.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3.&amp;nbsp;Click &lt;strong&gt;Next&lt;/strong&gt;, select &lt;strong&gt;None&lt;/strong&gt; for &lt;strong&gt;Template,&lt;/strong&gt; and click &lt;strong&gt;Next&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Specify the name for Work Area as &lt;strong&gt;Default Project,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;or can specify a custom name as per requirement for example &amp;quot;&lt;strong&gt;Substation Default ANSI&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;quot;. Click &lt;strong&gt;Finish&lt;/strong&gt; to complete and close the Wizard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " height="413" src="/resized-image/__size/720x500/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638274842295v11.png" width="528" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Attention:&lt;/strong&gt; Multiple Default Startup Projects are required when the managed configuration contains more than one workspace. Each managed workspace requires a separate Default Startup Project.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. Using ProjectWise Explorer, &lt;strong&gt;copy&lt;/strong&gt; Ecad.dgn into each Default Startup Project created in the prior step. Ecad.dgn can be found in for example in &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;.......Documents\Substation CONNECT Managed\WorkSpaces\Substation ANSI-IEEE Example\Standards\Substation\Templates\Page\&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-&lt;img alt=" " height="329" src="/resized-image/__size/720x500/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638275440229v12.png" width="576" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/450x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638275506528v13.png" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Create&lt;strong&gt; Substation_Workspace.cfg&lt;/strong&gt; file which will be used by Substation to associate the project with a WorkSpace &amp;amp; WorkSet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a. On the &lt;strong&gt;local file system&lt;/strong&gt;, create a new &lt;strong&gt;text file&lt;/strong&gt; named &lt;strong&gt;Substation_Workspace.cfg&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;b. Open this file using Windows &lt;strong&gt;NotePad&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;c. Add and Set the following variables and set their values.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;_USTN_WORKSPACENAME =&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Workspace name that will be associated with the default startup project.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;_USTN_WORKSETNAME =&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Workset name that will be associated with the default startup project&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Example&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/375x275/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638275861445v14.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can also download the above example file from the below download link.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://communities.bentley.com/products/utility_network_analysis___design/m/electrical_and_instrumentation_gallery/275481"&gt;communities.bentley.com/.../275481&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;d. Import Substation_Workspace.cfg file into the appropriate Default Startup Project folder.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/650x150/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638276086126v15.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If selected a custom name Step 4 above follow the below Wiki Link for steps to change the name of the Default Project folder. After following the steps from the below Wiki Link the file can be used to Depoy the configuration on all the Client Machine.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a href="https://communities.bentley.com/products/utility_network_analysis___design/w/utility_network_analysis_and_design_wiki/54723/warning-ecad-dgn-doesn-t-exist-in-defaultproject-in-projectwise"&gt;communities.bentley.com/.../warning-ecad-dgn-doesn-t-exist-in-defaultproject-in-projectwise&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 3: Designate Default Work Area for OpenUtilities Substation Projects&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;OpenUtilities Substation ELEC_DEFAULT_PROJECT_DIR variable defines the Default Project Directory for OpenUtilities Substation Projects. This variable is defined in the Substation.cfg at the Workspace or Workset configuration level and imported during Step 1 - Import Configuration Data Files into ProjectWise. In order for the managed configuration to properly work, the path specified for this variable must exist within the ProjectWise Datasource.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Upgrade a ProjectWise &lt;strong&gt;Folder&lt;/strong&gt; to a &lt;strong&gt;Work Area&lt;/strong&gt; or Create a new &lt;strong&gt;Work Area&lt;/strong&gt;. Select the Address of the folder and &lt;strong&gt;copy&lt;/strong&gt; it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " height="269" src="/resized-image/__size/720x500/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638276542806v17.png" width="628" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.&amp;nbsp;Open &lt;strong&gt;Substation.cfg&lt;/strong&gt; with NotePad. Set the ELEC_DEFAULT_PROJECT_DIR variable in Substation.CFG equal to the ProjectWise path to the designated Default Work Area (from prior step).&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For example&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/720x500/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638277167098v18.png" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/720x500/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638277215346v19.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;Save&lt;/strong&gt; the file, Close &lt;strong&gt;NotePad&lt;/strong&gt;, and select&lt;strong&gt; Check In&lt;/strong&gt; when prompted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " height="255" src="/resized-image/__size/450x300/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638277302244v20.png" width="388" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 4: Upgrade WorkSpace and WorkSet Folders to Work Areas&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After importing the configuration into ProjectWise, you need to upgrade the individual WorkSpace and WorkSet folders to ProjectWise projects in ProjectWise Explorer.&lt;br /&gt;Example showing Workspace Substation ANSI-IEEE Example and Workset Substation_Sample_ANSI-IEEE folder upgraded to Work Areas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Attention&lt;/strong&gt;: If multiple workspaces are part of the managed configuration, upgrade each Workspace and Workset folder to Work Areas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;1. Select the &lt;strong&gt;WorkSpace&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;folder and &lt;strong&gt;Right-Click&lt;/strong&gt;, and select &lt;strong&gt;Update to Work Area&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=" " height="359" src="/resized-image/__size/720x500/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638277645428v21.png" width="361" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. Click &lt;strong&gt;Next&lt;/strong&gt; in Work Area Creation Wizard, and click &lt;strong&gt;Finish&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img alt=" " height="403" src="/resized-image/__size/720x500/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1638277773936v22.png" width="510" /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Repeat the above&amp;nbsp; &lt;strong&gt;Steps 1 &amp;amp; 2&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; for all the&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;WorkSets&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;inside the WorkSpace that are going to be part of the Managed WorkSpace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="border-width:0px;" alt=" " height="60" src="/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-components-sitefiles/TSG-Logo.png" width="189" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
