  1. Create a spreadsheet using these EXACT Columns:

    • ItemNumber (Must be a valid tool number that exists in Align)

    • ImportValue (This value must be greater than the one already stored in Align).

    • Date (This value must be more recent than the last meter import date and must be in mm/dd/yyyy format).

  2. Populate the spreadsheet with current tool and meter information.

3. Save the file in .csv format.

4. From the Navigator side bar select Administration > Settings > Under Equipment > Import Meter (see image). This will open the Import Meter screen.

5. Click the Browse button to choose the .csv file to import


  • If the file you imported does NOT contain any errors, the Status message for each tool will display the word “Valid”

  • Once your values are Valid, click the Import button. The lines will disappear from view as they are imported; New Meter values will replace Current Meter values on the respective tool records.


  • If the imported file contains errors, the Status field will contain a message describing the error(s) and providing feedback so that you can correct these errors and resubmit for updating.

  • Once your values are Valid, click the Import button. The lines will disappear from view as they are imported; New Meter values will replace Current Meter values on the respective tool records.
