IMAGINiT Utilities for Vault Client and Vault Server 2014 Now Available

Rand Worldwide announced that its IMAGINiT Technologies division has released the new Vault Metadata Update Utility for IMAGINiT’s Utilities for Vault Server. In addition to the new Utility, IMAGINiT has also made productivity enhancing updates to the existing Utilities for Vault Server and Utilities for Vault Client including compatibility with the 2014 version of Autodesk Vault.

“We hope to raise the bar with each new Utility that we deliver as well as with the enhanced functionality that we continue to add to our existing Utilities,” says Bob Heeg, executive vice president, IMAGINiT Technologies. “Our Utilities for Vault Server and Vault Client are specifically designed to alleviate some of the burden associated with data management tasks on IT managers and design professionals, allowing them to extend the power of their Autodesk Vault software investment.”

New Utility Available in Utilities for Vault Server 2014

A new Utility is now available inside IMAGINiT Utilities for Vault Server 2014. It is the new Vault Metadata Update which enables users of Vault Server 2014 to export and import data from a spreadsheet – including descriptions or part number changes – eliminating the need to manually enter items into the data management system. Instead, users can simply run an export to an Excel spreadsheet, fill in the missing data and re-import the data from the spreadsheet, resulting in significant time savings. The ability to easily share the data for review once it’s on a spreadsheet improves the accuracy of the data.

Enhancements to the IMAGINiT Utilities for Vault Client 2014

  • The Create PDF tool has expanded abilities to generate PDFs from Inventor IDW and DWG as well as AutoCAD files at the press of a button using the Job Processor.
  • The Batch Checkout offers a simple method of checking out multiple files at once, offering superior version control and improving workflow across the entire team.
