Generates a template .ddt file based on the selected site, plant, or application schema. Use this command to create a data dictionary template from a data dictionary that you have modified via the Tools > Data Dictionary Manager command.

A site data dictionary template file contains all the information in the site schema including plant group types and hierarchy templates. A plant data dictionary template file contains all the information in the plant schema. The application data dictionary temple contains all filters, plant group types, Options Manager settings and symbology, and other database-related items (anything that's not stored in external files, like rules or symbols).

  • Data dictionary templates cannot be upgraded. You cannot use a template created using an older version of SmartPlant Engineering Manager to create a site, plant, or application schema.

  • Data dictionary templates are not database-specific. In other words, a given data dictionary template can be used in both Oracle and SQL Server environments.

  • When using a data dictionary template to create a plant in another site, you must have the proper rules file (which relies on filters) to go with that template. Rules, insulation specification, symbols, and other file-based reference data are not included in data dictionary templates.
