Each organization using the software requires customized reference data such as rules, catalog items, and symbols to meet their exact needs. Customized rules control how and when the catalog items and symbols are used in the model.

Before working with hole management reference data, you must be familiar with how the software handles reference data in general. If you have not already done so, read and understand the following important concepts and procedures described in the Smart 3D Reference Data Guide and 2D Symbols Reference Data Guide:

  • Reference data types

  • Using excel workbooks to configure reference data

  • Using the bulkload modes

  • Creating rules using Visual Studio

  • Creating 2D symbols using the 2D Symbols utility

This reference data guide describes the example hole management reference data delivered with the software.
