SDEF Conversion Utilities

You can exchange project data with other Primavera users by converting projects to the Oracle Primavera Proprietary Exchange Format (XER). Using the Primavera import/export features, you can then convert an XER file to an SDEF data file, and vice versa. Convert data between the XER and SDEF formats using the following utilities:

• SDEF to XER (P330XERConvert.exe)
• XER to SDEF (XERP330Convert.exe)

Use these SDEF conversion capabilities when you want to

• exchange project data with contractors and owners who do not use Oracle Primavera products.
• provide project data in the SDEF format whenever required by your contract.
