Import Detailed WBS Data for Products

An Admin user's guide to importing detailed Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) project data for products

Published: 14 February 2026

PSOhub has introduced an Advanced WBS Project Import function to provide more control over detailed project data. This secondary method allows you to import specific Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) data, such as Quantity, Price Per Unit, and related products.

⚠️Important: Access to import project data is restricted to Admin users only.

Core overview

Admin users can now choose between two methods depending on their specific needs:

  • Standard Import: The existing method used for initial project setup.

  • Advanced WBS Import (New): A secondary option specifically for importing WBS data (Quantity, Price Per Unit, and related products).

Prerequisite & requirements

  • Contract template: Contract templates with contract lines must already exist. 

  • Data Creation: PSOhub will automatically create new customers (companies) or contacts if they are not yet in the database.

Key rules & validation

To ensure a successful import, the following rules apply:

  • Supported Types: Only the contract line type ‘Product’ is supported.
  • Database Matches: Contract templates and contract line names must match existing entries in the database.
  • Product Price List: This should be the same as the selected product price list connected to the contract line.
  • Project Consistency: For each project, values for Business Unit, Currency, Customer Name, Project Manager, Contract Template, Invoice Contact, Date, Stage, and Type must be consistent across all rows.
  • Billing Frequency Start Date: Only allowed for recurring products.
