I created a footprint for a 9 Volt battery using Module Editor but, it
only allows me

to save it in *.EMP format

 

 

   I ended up exporting the footprint directly on to my board, but this
created additional problems with ERC check.

 

 

I had to manually route the tracks to the 9 Volt battery footprint, and let
autoroute do the rest.

 

My approach did NOT work!, it generated ERC errors.

 

ERC check is claiming that a track and pad (the positive and negative from
the 9 Volt footprint that I created) are too close.

 

This a fake ERC error, the pads IS supoused to connect to that track
(otherwise the circuit would NOT have power)

 

 

 

 

  I need to create a footprint for the 9 Volt battery that I can use from
the beginning of the design, so that CVPCB has access to it them

and can incorporate it into the netlist.
