Use this form to manage the detailed link between IFC attributes and eTASK features. For each mapping rule, assign the IFC attributes to the corresponding eTASK database columns and define the path in the IFC schema via which the attribute is read. For Revit or ArchiCAD models, you can alternatively use the native attribute names from these BIM authoring tools. This configuration controls which data is transferred to which eTASK fields during model import.
identification
Basic information on the assignment of the attribute mapping to the higher-level mapping rule and control of activation.
| Property | Description |
| mapping rule | Assigned mapping rule (IFC entity to eTASK object type) for which this attribute link applies and is applied during import |
| Active? | Control whether this attribute link is to be executed automatically during model import or is temporarily deactivated |
ifc
Definition of the IFC attribute and its path in the IFC schema in accordance with ISO 16739 for importing data from BIM models.
| Property | Description |
| IFC Path | Complete path in the IFC schema for localizing the attribute (e.g. "IsDefinedBy.RelatingPropertyDefinition.HasProperties.NominalValue"), which uniquely describes the position of the value in the IFC data structure |
| IFC attribute | Name of the IFC attribute (e.g. "Name", "Description", "LoadBearing") that is to be read from the BIM model and assigned to the eTASK feature |
eTASK
Assignment to the target table and target feature in eTASK into which the data from the IFC attribute is to be imported.
| Property | Description |
| Table/Form | Selection of the eTASK table or form into which the data from the BIM model is to be imported (e.g. objects, rooms, floors) |
| table column | Selection of the target column or target feature in the eTASK table into which the value of the IFC attribute is transferred during import |
BIM Tools
Alternative attribute mappings for BIM authoring tools to directly use native parameter names from Revit or ArchiCAD instead of IFC paths.
| Property | Description |
| Revit | Native Revit parameter name (e.g. "Comments", "Mark", "Family and Type") for the mapping if the BIM model originates from Autodesk Revit and native parameters are to be used |
| Archicad | Native ArchiCAD parameter name for the mapping if the BIM model originates from Graphisoft ArchiCAD and native parameters are to be used |
Mapping configuration
The mapping configuration contains settings for assigning BIM attributes to database fields. It controls how information from the BIM model is transferred to the database and structured.
| Property | Description |
| Configuration | The mapping rule is configured here. |
