Versions of OnePager Pro and Express '''prior''' to 6.0 required you to insert a field (i.e., flag fields) into your '''source plan''' that tells OnePager which rows to import. These '''flag''' fields for Microsoft Project or Excel '''source plans''' were typically fields named '''Flag1 through Flag20''' for Microsoft Project and some other '''Boolean''' field for Microsoft Excel.  OnePager Pro ('''OPP''') used these '''flag''' fields to control the import of rows.  In both OnePager Pro and Express ('''OPX''') you may use '''Numeric''' fields or '''Boolean''' fields as long as the contents were '''1’s''' to indicate '''Yes '''(bring in this row) or '''0’s''' to indicate '''No''' (do not import this row).

The approach described above for controlling the import of Microsoft Project/Excel '''source plan''' rows is quite flexible.  However, it required a modification to the '''source plan''' before import to OnePager so you can limit the rows presented in the resulting project view.

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.
