What is the ArcherGrey Product Uploader?

• It is a small, handy and extendable collection of ENOVIA admin objects, JSPs and JAR files which use the Apache POI (“Poor Obfuscation Implementation” – related to MS Office formats)

• This Java library is used to read, extract, validate and save cells/fields from checked in Excel and/or delimited text files into ENOVIA Business object basics and attributes along with creating, connecting, auto naming, attribute numbering or whatever else you may want to do with them.
