What changes
What changes on the way
Sections, items, item numbers, short and long texts, quantities, units, prices and the markers for contingency, alternative and lump-sum items are carried over. GAEB 90 stores no group numbers for alternative items, so the converter derives them from the order. Records the reader does not interpret, such as the client's address (record 03) or unit price components (record 30), are listed in the report.
FAQ
Questions about converting GAEB files.
Open the D83 in the converter, keep the target X83 and download the file. The converter writes GAEB DA XML 3.3.
GAEB 90 (D81 to D86), GAEB 2000 (P81 to P86) and GAEB DA XML 3.0, 3.1 and 3.2. The target is one of X81, X82, X83 or X84 in version 3.3.
3.3 is the current version. GAEB no longer supports GAEB 90 and GAEB 2000, and newer software often reads them poorly or not at all.
Everything the new file cannot hold is listed in the report before you download, with the item numbers concerned.
Yes. GAEB 2000 files (P81 to P86) are converted the same way; a P83 becomes an X83.
