UDP as date for Autocad + choose the format

UDP as date for Autocad + choose the format

Hello,

 

If you map an Autocad attribut with an UDP as date, in Autocad you will see the date + a none wanted random time.

 

Can you add the possibility to link correctly an Autocad attribut with a UDP as date and choose how this date is displayed.

 

Thanks in advance.

Using AutoCAD 2014 and Vault Professional 2014 - Still an Issue

 

Trying to map a Created Date from AutoCAD into the Vault is proven harder than you could ever imagine.

 

Methods

 

1. Mapping Original Create Date System Property from Vault to AutoCAD Attribute will add the time stamp at the end of the date - also this is the Original Create Date of the 1st version not the first save within AutoCAD.

 

2. Using the Date Created Field in AutoCAD and mapping this to a UDP Type DATE in Vault brings in the Date and TimeStamp and then labels the Vault UDP and AutoCAD Field as non-equivalent, because of the mismatch in formatting.

 

3. Using the Date Created Field in AutoCAD and mapping this to a UDP Type TEXT in Vault brings in the Date only which is what we want, but after creating another version of that same file it updates the Create Date Field on the Title Block to the new version created date when it should be keeping the original create date.

 

Either way you go, it seems like there is an issue.  Anyone else able to achieve a Create Date between AutoCAD and Vault with Date Only?

 

The only thing I can think of to do is to not create a mapping and just use the field in AutoCAD and use the Original Create Date System Property from Vault for reference.  However, they would like to see this on their UDP list.

It's now Sep 2016, 3.5 years after it went into state 'Under Review'

 

Any news?

 

It sounds unbelieveable you cannot store an autocad file in Vault with the correct date connected....
