You have eClass Advanced information available in the form of a XML file and would like to assign it to the adequate catalog projects so that the information is available in the PARTdataManager?
Integrate the eClass Advanced information via Import eClass XML file... command into your PARTsolutions catalog. The process will split the "large" XML file and assign the individual product information to single projects in the form of "little" XML files.
Precondition is the availability of appropriate mapping information.
The XML file contains the article number in the element <SUPPLIER_PID> (analogously to BMEcat specification).
