You must perform appropriate data mapping setups on the target schedule sheet. This includes mapping Unifier Schedule Sheet columns to Primavera XML elements, and setting appropriate XML Import options.
This method will insert/update activities into any project or shell schedule sheet. It will not overwrite existing activities in the schedule sheet. The method will utilize the data mapping setup to update only those elements that are mapped.
The method errors out if the data mapping option does not allow merge.
Activities are uniquely identified within Primavera by the Globally Unique Id (<GUID>). The GUID is assumed to be unique not just within Primavera but across all products including Unifier.
