Copy Design - Property creation is set to no

matt_jlt — Thu, 19 Sep 2024 02:00:40 GMT

I have a setup that recently migrated to vault professional 2023 and during copy design this error is appearing
"Files were copied successfully but the property wasn't created as the property creation is set to "No"

Does anyone have an explanation behind this or a way to fix this issue please? I couldnt find any reference information on the error anywhere,

I think it might be related to mapping but I am not sure.

Thanks, Matt.

Some specific property (or more) may have not been created at the file level because the mapping is set for no creation (Create column > value = "No") at Vault Settings > Behaviors > Properties > Mapping (tab, for any selected property):

You might want to compare which properties are not showing up compared to the original/source file for the copy design. Use Design Assistant if needed to spot any property(ies) missing.

Thanks Gabriel, the settings are in that folder.
