Hi guys,
I've got a unique request from a customer. They use EPDM but not very well, poor workflows, datacards, etc... The company has changed hands about 5 times in the last 3 years so they also have a majority of files that are considered "garbage" but they do want to retain for historical purposes.
They would basically like to get a "do-over" and create a brand new vault (also jump from EPDM 2010 to 2012). So what they asked was to copy over the workflows, variable, datacards, etc... and then clean them and get everything working correctly as they want. That's the easy part!
But after everything is working as they would like it to then they would like ONLY the files that they deem needed (~5% of their existing vault) transferred to the new vault. But they would like it copied in a way that also maintains the history of the file(s) from the "old" vault.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Tom
Tom,
We have a simular situation. We are running out of space in our current vault and wanted to create a new "archive" vault which we could move old job data to. We found that not only would we loose file history but file references were not updated to reflect the new location. We choose to leave the existing vault alone and put all new jobs in a new vault.
