How do I set up my planned schedule?

This article explains how to set up your planned schedule in oculai, either via direct import or using a CSV file.

Import via external scheduling tool

oculai is not a scheduling tool and requires the import of a planned schedule from an external tool. Here we are compatible with the common software solutions Asta Powerproject, MS Project, and 3) Primavera P6. Export the schedule as an export file (.xml, .pp, .mpp, .xer) and import the schedule into oculai simply via drag & drop.

If a schedule is already set up, it can be overwritten and versioned.

Import with CSV

If the schedule was created in Excel or another tool not supported by oculai, we offer import via a .csv file as an alternative. It is mandatory that the schedule conforms to the data format described in the table.
