Ennov InSight RIM Publisher 7.1

Link Statuses

Ennov InSight uses flags in the results of the Link Inspector query to show the status of links.

Status Flag Description Details Examples
OK Link Targeted and Current Link is targeted to resolvable location in the current or working assembly. Link is current with latest document rendition and the target document has not been updated since the link was established.
  • Both documents exist in DMS.
  • Link points to valid page, leaf or bookmark in the target.
  • Source and target are both assigned in the same sequence.
OK Link Suppressed Link has output channel set to None. Same as Link Targeted and Current but output channel set to none.
Warning Link Lifecycle Auto-Update

(Historical Link Scenario)

The link targets a document in an Ennov InSight assembly in the current Application, but not in the current sequence.

In this scenario the target is linked to by a source that's been included in a prior sequence in the same Application. Ennov InSight lifecycle auto-updates this link to resolve correctly to the already-submitted document.

  • Both documents exists in DMS.
  • Source document assigned in original sequence.
  • Target document not assigned in original sequence.
  • Target document assigned in current sequence.
  • Source document not included in current sequence.
  • Prepare for publish is run on the working or sequence view of the current sequence.
Warning Link Lifecycle Auto-Update

(Stale Link Scenario)

The source link (bound to current) targets a document in an Ennov InSight assembly, and the target document is bound to current and replaced in the second sequence with a new version of the target which is now bound to current.

Ennov InSight will lifecycle auto-update this stale link because it considers this link to be following the latest replaced version of the document.

  • Both documents exists in DMS.
  • Source and target document assigned in original sequence.
  • In current sequence an updated version of the target document is replaced with the "current" (label) document.
  • Source document not assigned in current sequence.
  • Prepare for publish is run on the working view of the current sequence.
Note: When two or more sequences exist in a working assembly, and an authoring link in two different source documents point to the same target document, adding a new leaf with an updated version of the target document will cause the Lifecycle Auto Update status to display "auto updated" in the inspector report when Prepare to Publish is run. This is expected behavior, because: * Both documents exist in the DMS. - The target document was assigned in the original sequence.  * In the current sequence, an updated version of the target document is replaced with the "current" (label) document. * The source document is assigned in the current sequence. (Even though this document has just been added to the sequence, it will still be auto-updated because the target has been replaced. It is updated to link to the new version that is in the sequence.)  * Prepare to publish is run on the working view of the current sequence
Warning Stale Link The source link targets a document in an Ennov InSight assembly, but the target document is bound to a specific version in the first sequence and replaced in the second sequence with a new version of the target which is now bound to current.

InSight cannot lifecycle auto-update this link because it considers this link to be bound to the old version.

  • Both documents exists in DMS.
  • Source and target document assigned in original sequence.
  • In current sequence an updated version of the target document is replaced with the "current" (label) document.
  • Source document not assigned in current sequence.
  • Prepare for Publish is run on the working view of the current sequence.
Error Incomplete Link The link is of comment type, not a document. Comment link type
Error Incomplete Link Target document cannot be found in the DMS. Target document does not exist in DMS.
Error Incomplete Link The link targets a document that is not resolvable when published (not contained in any known assembly). Target document does not exist in the application.
Error Target Missing The link must be retargeted because either (1) the targeted bookmark was deleted from the document or (2) the targeted page (last page in the document) was removed from the revised document. Specific destination in document does not exist.
Unknown Link Modified The link has been modified in the Link Inspector since Prepare for Publish was run.
  • Change of link from the Link Inspector query screen without prior to running a prepare for publish.
  • Link Modified status will be updated once prepare for publish is run.
Unknown Undetermined Link Gives a status to links we cannot determine. Scenario where none of the other descriptions applies.
