After creating a PDM TaskActions task (see PDM Task), you then select the actions to be performed.


You can choose from the following options:


  • TaskProperties,which offers several types of operations for modifying the variables in a data map.
  • TaskProperties Free offers several types of operations for modifying variables in a data map without versioning.
  • Rename,which allows you to rename any type of file using the value of a variable.
  • DocPublication,which allows you to convert files to a neutral format from Microsoft Office and/or SOLIDWORKS documents (see the DocPublication chapter).
  • StampPDF,which lets you add a stamp or text to PDF files
  • RevisionTable,which allows you to manage revision tables in SOLIDWORKS drawings based on PDM data (see the "RevisionTable"chapter).
  • PDMRebuild,which allows you to rebuild SOLIDWORKS files or PDM links to the latest version


Two myCADtools tasks are available if you have a myCADtools license


  • StartTask,which allows you to launch a task after TaskActions operations have completed
  • CopyFile,which allows you to start a file copy operation
  • Publish,which allows you to publish documents to SharePoint



The TaskProperties, RevisionTable, PDMRebuild, Integration, and DrawingsTranslate tasks must be located between an extraction task and an archiving task.


 


The actions are performed in the order in which they are in the list, so the arrows allow you to change the order of processing.
