When importing data, on the Import details page you can select which nomenclature is used in the file. This means you can more easily import data from different versions of SimaPro into SimaPro Synergy. Note that the nomenclature chosen only affects how substances are mapped, not products.
Please make sure to choose the libraries that you use in the new project, prior to importing data.
The following import options are available:
Professional 9.4 – ensures substances are mapped based on naming convention in the SimaPro Professional 9.4 database (with ecoinvent 3.8)
SimaPro EF 3.1 – ensures substances are mapped based on naming convention in the SimaPro Environment Footprint 3.1 database. Choose this option when doing PEF modelling or if the data originated from a SimaPro Craft database using the EF 3.1 libraries
Professional 9.5 – ensures substances are mapped based on naming convention in the SimaPro Professional 9.5 database (with ecoinvent 3.9.1)
Professional 9.6 – ensures substances are mapped based on naming convention in the SimaPro Professional 9.6 database – choose this option when importing data modelled using the SimaPro Professional 9.6 database (with ecoinvent 3.10)
SimaPro ecoinvent 3.10 EN15804 – ensures substances are mapped based on naming convention in the SimaPro EN 15804 +A2 database
Professional 10.2 – ensures substances are mapped based on naming convention in the SimaPro Professional 10.2 database – choose this option when importing data modelled using the SimaPro Professional 10.2 database (with ecoinvent 3.11)
SimaPro ecoinvent 3.11 EN15804 – ensures substances are mapped based on naming convention in the SimaPro EN 15804 +A2 database
Tips!
You can find more tips on how to integrate your project to SimaPro Synergy here.
If you have data from an older version of SimaPro (i.e., prior to SimaPro 9.4 with ecoinvent 3.8), please follow the SimaPro Craft user guide to first update your SimaPro Craft database to the latest version. More information and instructions on how to update can be found here.
