Hi,

I am trying to bulk check in some SolidWorks drawings using the VaultAdmin tool but the check in keeps failing. See below example log file output:

>> Checking In File 'EU009.SLDDRW', Revision 'A', Status 'Approved', Number '', Description '', Project 'EU Drawings', Path 'C:\SolidWorks WIP\EU\EU009.SLDDRW'
ERROR: Failed on check in of document "EU009.SLDDRW".
Check In aborted!
ERROR: Unknown error checking in 'EU009.SLDDRW'.

As you can see the log file is not particularly helpful when it comes to working out the problem...

I can still check in files through SolidWorks and the SolidWorks Explorer.

I have recently bulk checked in other similar files in exactly the same way and that worked fine. Has this happened to anyone else?

Many thanks,
Jack

A common issue with bulk check in not working is the revision of the file not matching the revision scheme you have setup. As an example, the file is at revision "A". If you have your revsion scheme setup to use both primary and secondary and you are reading the revision from the file, it cannot check it in

Thanks for the tip Wayne. Turns out the issue was with my lifecycle settings. I had logged onto the VaultAdmin as the default pdmwadmin, but my lifecycle setting didn't grant that user access at the lifecycle status that I was trying to check the documents in under. Kind of a boneheaded mistake.
