On some construction projects, fabrication might require modifications to the engineering data. For example, if engineering has designed a long pipeline that won't fit on a truck, fabrication might modify the pipeline, dividing it into three pieces to be welded together at the construction site. Or, engineering might design an elbow pipe that is fabricated as a pulled bend. For more information about getting data into Smart Construction with fabrication modifications, see Loading and using data with fabrication modifications in Smart Construction.
As part of the work process for retrieving data with fabrication modifications into Smart Construction, you might have to configure the SPCRetrieveMappings.xlsm workbook for fabrication data.
