New to Vault Workgroup, Collaboration, and Professional 2011 is the option to send a Transmittal Report with a ‘Pack and Go’ or using the ‘Send File’ feature. This is a PDF that describes the contents of the data they are sending and provide your organization with a record of what was sent. This post we’ll take a look at some advanced configuration settings.
There resides a XML config file in the users’ vault installation directory (e.g. C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Vault Professional 2011\Explorer\Connectivity.VaultPro.exe.config) which contains three keys; which are:
<add key="AppendReportToPackage" value="1"/>
This key controls the turning ON/OFF of transmittal reports during sending of files via the email client. (0 = OFF, 1 = ON)
<add key="ShowFullPathInTransmittalReport" value="1"/>
This key toggles the display of the transmitted file(s) source location from full to relative path (or vice versa)
<add key="FileTransmittalReportTemplate" value="$/Templates/File Transmittal.rdlc"/>
This key allows the user to define the RDLC template which generates the transmittal report. With this, the user can define a file from local or from the Vault.
Thanks for the tip Alan.
