On this page you learn how to upload time series in nPro.
Upload with copy / paste
In the nPro tool, time series can be uploaded very easily by copy / paste. The time series can be copied from an Excel spreadsheet or a text editor and pasted into the text field in the upload window.
Valid formats
Different time-series lengths are accepted. A complete overview of valid time-series lengths is provided below. Both decimal commas and decimal points can be used. Each line must contain exactly one value, with no additional characters at the end of the line. When using decimal points, multiple values can also be entered consecutively on a single line. In this case, the values must be separated by commas.
