The Data Standard default configuration assumes that Vault Professional users primarily create files of category Engineering, while Vault Office users usually start new files assigned to the Office category. Most customers implement more than a single category for Engineering or Office files, e.g., a differentiation for Part, Sheet Metal Part, Assembly, Drawings, and more. Usually, the assignment follows company-specific rules, and VDS is excellent in transforming these rules in Automation. A user no longer needs to apply these standards manually.
This chapter’s rule scripts change the default pre-selection of Category Engineering to the individual Categories Part, Assembly, or respective Drawing Categories in all VDS applications, AutoCAD, Inventor, and Vault.
