Meters

Download the template : Meter_Import_2023.xlsx


To start the process upload a file using the Meter File Browser Button that contains the template with the appropriate fields. Make sure there is no leading text or blank rows below the meter data.

Next choose an Xref type.

Then select import and if it ran with no problems it will show that it has ran successfully.

There will be a "Records in File" and "Records with Errors" section that will reveal anything wrong with the file.

If everything looks correct click the "Import Meters" button.

Forecasts

Download the template: Forecast Import Specs.xls

Make sure to put your data into the Forecast Import Specs.xls file as xls files can become corrupted and will not import even if everything looks alright.

More Info on Forecast set up here. This will show you how to set up types which will need to be selected as part of the import.

First you will pick what Xref Type you want to use from the drop down list. Note that all the xrefs need to be the same in the template.

Select the type or make a new one.

There will be 3 radio buttons for the type of data in the import file:

Monthly & Daily - The upload file contains monthly data only. This selection will apply your monthly data to the forecast table and then based on type setting will then create daily records allowing them to be seen in PumperX2.
Monthly Only - The upload file contains Monthly data only. This selection will only upload monthly data to the Forecast table.
Daily Only - The upload file contains Daily data only. This selection will only upload daily data to the forecast daily table allowing it to be seen in Pumperx2. You will not be able to see it from Site Maintenance.

Check mark the Ignore First row if you have a column header.

You do not need to have data for Oil, Gas, or Water and any blank data will be converted to zero.

Once everything has been setup click "Scan File" to show if there are any problems with the data.

If everything is error free select "Start Import".

Note that in other parts of PRAMS you will need to turn on or select the forecast you imported into to be able to see the data.

Gas Statements

Download the template: Gas Statement Import.xlsx


To start the import make sure the format has been set up to properly capture what you need off the statement data.

On the main screen for the import you will see a cog wheel with "Format Editor", if you click this the following screen will appear:

Tools - Import - Gas Statements.png

To make a format type, start by giving it a name that correlates to the gas statement that will be imported.

If you know your template has a header make sure to start it at row 2.

It doesn't matter which column the data is in as you can state where it resides. The column will be highlighted with the color that matches the text to the left.

You can also check mark the mmbtu column as its not always needed.

If there are any characters that are need to be trimmed from the meter, the first or last part of that can be cut from the pull.

To make sure it matches try previewing it with the statement to see if it will work before trying to import.

When your preview is working, save the changes and exit the format editor and then select the period, browse for the statement file, then start the upload.

There will be a preview that shows if anything is in error. IF so fix it in the statement then start the process over.


Daily Data

This import can also upload Injection data when the radio button is marked, which also has a template in the download.

Download the template: Daily_Data_Import_Specs.xlsx


To start use the attached template or make your own with the required prerequisites.
