Hi, we need automate "importing like a layer" that is available in Acrobat. In Acrobat we select a pdf and we assign to a named layer, with many others options. There is anything so in Pitstop Pro o Swicth? thank you

You'll need an Action List to do this. I'm not sure if you mean PitStop Pro or PitStop Server, but if you want to automate this in Switch you will need PitStop Server.
The Action will look something like.
> Overlay PDF (to import the new PDF into the existing one)
> Select last added objects (to select all the objects in the imported PDF)
> Assign objects to layer with name (here you define the name of the layer the objects should be added to. New or existing)
If you want me to make it for you, just mail me some test files and I will make the Action List.
What you would then need to do is integrate it with Switch variables so it can be automated.
