User defined property Definitions

[Josy05]

Hi to all,

We have project specific Vault Server. For each of them we have defined a project name and number. Unlike other properties were I need to scroll thru a list I would like for this info to be a default. IT has customized it with an Initial Value and also a List of Values containing this single selection. Since this field is linked to the titleblock we need to manually choose this info each time we make a component.

Is it possible to have those properties as default? I have admin access so it is possible for me to edit settings. Attached a screenshot of our current settings for those two properties.

Thanks,

Hi Josy,

             There is a way to add these properties automatically, when you add files to Vault

1. Write a Custom handler for DocumentService.AddFileEvents.Post Event

2. Get the PropertyId of your "Project Number" Property

3. Check whether "Project Number" property exists if not Add your property using UpdateFilePropertyDefinitions Event
