Load Data Dialog

On several places in the application you can load data, see the section Scenario Page Actions for loading scenario data. In all these cases, you will see a dialog like the following:

In the top part of this dialog there are three options: Upload an Excel File, navigate to the Whiteboard, and Download an Excel Template. The option to upload an Excel file is only available when loading the input data and not for the scenarios. Navigating to the Whiteboard allows users to create a diagram of their supply chain network. This diagram can be automatically translated into an Excel template that can be uploaded to SC Navigator via the Upload Excel File button.

You can import the data by performing the following three steps:

  1. Click the plus sign button.

  2. Select the Excel file you want to load.

  3. Click the save sign button to import the data.

After the last step the dialog will disappear.

Important

This last step is very important, no data will be loaded if this step is not completed.

In the bottom part of the dialog (which is the only part in many pages), you can select the dataset (scenario) which you want to load. You can do this by checking the checkbox for the column Selected of the dataset which you want to load, followed by clicking on the Load button in the lower right corner of the page.
