Enabling Vault Client

[Mopico]

What is the precedure for this?  I have tried a re-pair and re-install and cannot find any options to activate the Vault Client.  My install of AutoCad is not Vault aware that I can find anywhere.  Inventntor is okay.  Vault options are present.

This installation was an upgrade from IVPro.  The previous install of AutoCad (mechanical although I ran the vanilla profile) had the proper vault tab that allowed log in/out check in/out etc.  I am currently running the application in "Architectural as AutoCAD "  profile mode.  Running straight Architecture 2011 is not different, no vault.

*Scenario: Installed Vault client before installation of ACA, so the add-in isn’t installed on ACA successfully.

*Solution:

1. In Windows Add/Remove Programs, select Vault Client

2. Click Add/Remove Features

3. Check on Addin for AutoCAD Architecture, proceed

4. Run AutoCAD Architecture, check if Vault tab appear on Ribbon menu.
