Can file created using template follow the project number from the folder data card

James Lee Aug 26, 2016 6:01 AM

Hi Guys,

I used a template to create a project folder with several sub folders.

The main folder name is PRO-1234 which is the project number.

I am trying to use file template to create a file which uses the file format > project number_module number.

So the filename will look something like PRO-1234_100.sldasm .

Can this be done?

Absolutely and it works great. It's easiest to force your users to create the files within the folder where they need to reside. If you do that, then you just need to have the Template data card use the 'Folder data card variable' to pull the folder information.

Then in your Template, re-use the Project Number Template Variable in your file name. Should be a piece of cake if you're familiar with building PDM Templates.
