Overview

In OnePager Pro and Express version 6.0, you still have the traditional Select-All and Yes/No ways of selecting rows. But now you have a new Conditional Import Filters engine that can turn more general conditional rules into "Yes" or "No" decisions that select rows.

This approach for controlling the import of Microsoft Project/Excel source plan rows is quite flexible.

The articles in this Conditional Import Filters series explain how you can use Conditional Import Filters to simplify the import of source plan data into OnePager and increase your flexibility for selecting task and milestones to appear in project views.
