Copy Design - Clear/Synchronize Non-compliant Property

Copy Design - Clear/Synchronize Non-compliant Property

When using Copy Design in Vault to copy a file with an higher Revision, the target files are non-compliant when the Revision Vault property of the source file is mapped to a file property. Synchronizing the property manually is an unnecessary step that should happen automatically. Please add the option to synchronize properties automatically.

If you are copying the file, isn't your next step to edit the file?

Upon checking the file out, you will synchronize the properties and check your edits simultaneously.

Hello @ihayesjr 

You are right, editing files is the next step, but users complaining about the compliance error before editing and from the visual perspective it looks strange for the users.

It would be nice if there would be done a sync properties after copy design automatically.

Hello, 
The sync properties will create an extra version of the document. This will increase the data volume in the filestores for no good reason and hence is not welcome. Filestores tend to increase and get to a size which makes them difficult to handle anyway since only a few companies use the purge functionality.
I do agree with ihayesjr and see it as a training task how to interpret the compliance glyph. 

Thanks to Autodesk for introducing "Purge action" in the lifecycles.
