Import schedule tasks from a Microsoft Project XML file

You can create a schedule using a Microsoft Project XML file.

Before you begin

Sage Construction Management currently supports files created in Microsoft Project 2010, 2013, and 2016 only.
The schedule in Microsoft Project must contain only tasks and relationships, not resources.
Remove blank rows in Microsoft Project before saving it to XML format.
Make sure that predecessor task references appear before current task in the file.
Relationships must have positive lags only.
Make sure that a day in Microsoft Project is set to 8 hours, not 24. Learn more here.

Go to Projects and select the appropriate project in the Quick Select section.
On the Project Home page, select Scheduling Overview or Schedules in the Scheduling section.
In the Schedules (Gantt Chart) section, select Actions > Add Schedule.
