Set the Item Type;
- At the top of the dialog you can define your "Item Type" if you want to set an Item Type for the parts being imported. Expand the field to select your Item Type, for this example we're using "Item" as the Item Type.

Define your destination folder in Teamcenter;

Define Naming Source;

- To fix the revision field when the part files contain underscores, change the "Conversion Rule" setting from "As ID and Revision" to "With Replace String".

- Set both "String to Replace" and the "Replacement String" fields to an underscore "_".

- Select the parts that contain underscores and don't have the correct revision. Then select the "Reset Attributes" button" in the upper right corner of the dialog.
