Placeholder for new drawings

[BrotherkennyhDWR]

Hi,

When a user checks out version 3 of a file, for example, the vault creates the version 4 as kind of a placeholder for when the file is checked back in. Other users see that version 4 is checked out to that user.

For me it would be handy to be able to extend this functionality to new drawings. For Example, when a user creates a new drawing and saves it when using a vault project, the vault creates the placeholder for version 1 in the same way it does for existing vault drawings.

This would be handy to see what other users are working on, prevent potential issues where users could both use the same file name before first check in.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Cheers

Kenny we do provide this ability when you use Vault Data Standard if you start by creating the files within the Vault client.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. We use Vault Basic here. Is the feature availble in Vault Basic?
