The DataGenerator PrintXML in combination with myview AutoPrint is completely different: the modules supplied as standard have configuration options with which even non-specialists can transform texts, images or tables into the desired layout - without programming a single line! Even complex layouts including tables can be created with just a few mouse clicks.
Numerous export interfaces
Data generators for your specific application.
The DataGenerator BMEcat comprises the configurable export interface for providing data in BMEcat format. The BMEcat format forms the basis for the exchange of product data in accordance with standard classifications such as ETIM, eCl@ss and proficl@ss.
The DataGenerator nexmart includes the configurable export interface for data provision in nexmart format. Data exchange in nexmart format is geared towards the provision of product data and configuration data for the marketplace of the same name. Technically, the nexmart format corresponds to the import format of the eCommerce software Enfinity from Intershop.
The myview DataGenerator GAEB includes the configurable export interface for data provision in GAEB 90 (DA81), GAEB 2000 (DA81), GAEB DA XML (DA81) and RTF format. Deliver your product information directly in the format required by planners and architects.
The DataGenerator (Relux) is the export module for generating ROLFII files, including the fully automatic upload of these files to ReluxNET. The ROLFII files can be generated independently of the subsequent upload so that the ROLFII files can also be used for other purposes such as publication on your own website.
The myview DataGenerator AUSSCHREIBEN.DE offers a direct interface to the AUSSCHREIBEN.DE portal. You can upload your product data, images, tender texts and structural information directly to the portal.
The DataGenerator ARGE ensures the smooth provision of product data on the industry portal ‘shk-branchenportal.de’. The ARGE module supports the data quality guideline DQR 4.0.
The DataGenerator DataSQL-DB writes CSV-based content directly into an SQL database. The filling scripts are stored in the system as standard SQL statements and can be individually preconfigured and selected for individual publication projects.
The DataGenerator (BIM VDI) provides the line-based output of product variants in pre-transformed PDT Excel format for direct data transfer in accordance with the VDI 3805 (ISO 16757) series of guidelines for electronic product data exchange for the technical building equipment (TGA) sector. The DataGenerator (BIM VDI) supports the configurable creation of ‘export variants’ during export through complete combinations of all selected and multi-dimensional characteristics of a product (multi-variant management). By storing the specific characteristic schemas according to the VDI technical sheets valid for the individual areas of the TGA in the DataManager and using them in the ViewEditor, the required product information of a TGA area can also be modelled and mapped quickly and easily.
The DataGenerator (EPREL) enables the provision of the product and performance data required for the EU database EPREL (European Product Registry for Energy Labelling) to describe the energy efficiency of a product in the XML format provided for this purpose. The generated XML files are transferred to the EPREL database using the EPREL application provided by the EU for data collection and uploading XML files. The export configuration for the product groups ‘Air Conditioner’, “LightSource”, ‘Local Space Heater’, ‘Space Heater’ and ‘Water Heater’ is supplied with the current version of the DataGenerator (EPREL). Other product ranges are available on request.
The DataGenerator DIALUX comprises the configurable export interface for providing lighting data in DIALUX format for the DIALUX lighting design tool of the same name. The export module ensures that the export format is syntactically correct. The correct filling of the individual DIALUX tables and the semantic correctness must be ensured by the PIM user through the maintained data and an organisation suitable for the DIALUX export.
The DataGenerator DataXML provides a generic XML format. This contains all the structural information of the classifications and views from xmedia. This format can be used as a starting point for customised XSL transformations for customer-specific XML processes.
The DataGenerator Excel/CSV includes the configurable export interfaces for the CSV and Microsoft Excel formats. The Excel formats Excel 97-2003 and Excel 2010 are supported.
The module for configuring and performing exports in CSV, MS Excel and DataXML formats.
The DataGenerator (BMDG) comprises the configurable export interface for data provision in BMDG (Building Master Data Guideline) format for data exchange between manufacturers and retailers. The module supports versions 1.0 and 2.1 of the BMDG specification (CSV file).
The DataGenerator (LDT) is the configurable export interface for generating LDT files. The export is based on maintained or previously calculated data in xmedia in line-based LDT format. The prerequisite for using this process is the availability of a measured master LDT file linked to a ‘variant master’ in xmediaLight, which contains a light distribution valid for all variants. Based on this, the DataGenerator (LDT) supports the generation and rule-based naming of variant-specific LDT files and, as part of this process, the replacement of values in the master LDT file that are not relevant to the light distribution with their variant-specific values maintained in the DataManager.
