Import Microsoft project files into the ServiceNow
Project Management application.  
Users with the project manager role can import a project using:

* Import module
* Project form
* Planning Console
{#project-import-msp__ul_frw_52r_z4}  
When you import a project as a new project or into an existing project, the projects are updated as follows:

* New project: A new record is created in the Project \[pm_project\] table. The tasks associated with the project are added to the Project Task \[pm_project_task\] table. Only the common or
  [mapped fields](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/IeZJQQLp08lnk290okV3GQ "During an import, values from Microsoft Project overwrite fields in project records.") are imported.
  Imported projects are brought into the instance with both Priority and Risk set to
  Low.

* Existing project: The instance checks the Text10 field in the top-level Microsoft Project task. If the Text10 field contains a recognizable sys_id, it means that the project was previously exported from a ServiceNow instance. In this case, the values from the project overwrite the values for the existing project.
{#project-import-msp__ul_xtt_psc_jlb}  
You can also specify the schedule calculation type as Automatic or Manual for the imported tasks. When you import a project into the instance, project constraints are converted as follows:

* The time constraint for all imported tasks, when you select calculation type as Manual, is set to Start on specific date irrespective of their constraint type in Microsoft Project.
* The following constraint types are supported when you select calculation type as Automatic:
  * Start on specific date
  * As soon as possible
  * Start no later than
  * Start no earlier than

  {#project-import-msp__ul_zq2_ppc_jlb}Tasks with other constraint types are converted to Start on specific date.

Nota:  
The resource name in Microsoft Project should map to the name of the user in the instance.
