You can exchange project data with other Primavera users by converting projects to the Oracle Primavera Proprietary Exchange Format (XER). Using the Primavera import/export features, you can then convert an XER file to an SDEF data file, and vice versa. Convert data between the XER and SDEF formats using the following utilities:
- SDEF to XER (P330XERConvert.exe)
- XER to SDEF (XERP330Convert.exe)
Use these SDEF conversion capabilities when you want to
- exchange project data with contractors and owners who do not use Oracle Primavera products.
- provide project data in the SDEF format whenever required by your contract.
Caution: Personal information (PI) may be at risk of exposure. Depending on local data protection laws organizations may be responsible for mitigating any risk of exposure.
