Archibus Extensions for BUILDER™ SMS contain these master connectors, to transfer various types of data between BUILDER™ SMS and Archibus:
| Master Connector Name | Description |
|---|---|
| SMS_Archibus_to_Builder_Assets |
Outbound connector to read Archibus asset inventory data, then process and send the data to BUILDER™ SMS. |
| SMS_BackgroundData_from_BUILDER | Inbound connector to read BUILDER™ SMS background, condition index, and replacement cost data, then process and import the data into Archibus. |

Master connectors group individual connectors. Individual connectors in each master connector correspond to particular asset types or categories. System administrators can determine which asset types to transfer, since they can enable or disable specific connectors in the master connector group. Individual connectors also enable administrators to add connectors, or to customize existing connectors to meet current data exchange requirements.
SMS_BackgroundData_from_BUILDER transfers asset categories from BUILDER™ SMS to Archibus. For all data exchanges, UNIFORMAT II categories in BUILDER™ SMS serve to classify assets on both platforms.
Before you run the outbound master connector, SMS_Archibus_to_Builder_Assets, for the first time, run SMS_BackgroundData_from_BUILDER to retrieve background data from BUILDER™ SMS. Background data includes asset classifications, construction types, building uses, and campus locations. For routine transfers after the initial export, the outbound master connector updates background data in Archibus before it exports asset data to BUILDER™ SMS.
