Import IFC categories to Organizer

You can import the location breakdown structure of an IFC model as IFC categories to the location categories in Organizer.

  1. To open Organizer , click Manage on the ribbon and then click Organizer.
  2. Select a Project , right-click and select New IFC project.
  3. Select the IFC model.
  4. Click Import.

    The IFC categories are imported at the bottom of location categories. The objects of the imported IFC model are automatically included in the IFC categories.

  5. If the IFC model is changed, you can update the latest version of the model to the categories. Select the highest IFC category level in the category tree, right-click and select Update.
Tip:

If you import IFC categories that have the same name as existing IFC categories, Organizer adds a running number to the category name. You can rename the categories.
