Create an Assembly from an Assembly File
An assembly created from an assembly file is used to restore the assemblies from the backup or transfer them between different systems.
When importing an assembly file, the documents in the file are not synchronized automatically with the mapped
Document Management System (DMS). They appear as placeholders that prevents import failures if the referenced DMS does not exist in the current system. Run a DMS synchronization immediately after importing to assign placeholders automatically to the DMS documents.
You must have appropriate security privileges to create an assembly.
Note: When creating a new assembly, or a new assembly template, from an assembly file, if the repository path in
Technical Administration does not relate to any location within assembly file, the location path will not be populated.
To create an assembly based on an assembly exported as XML to an assembly file:
- On the home page, click Create a New > Assembly Template.
- On the Create Assembly Template page, click Assembly File.
- To find the assembly file, click Browse and do one of the
following:
Option Action On the Documents tab, navigate to the assembly file: Click OK On the Search tab, find the assembly file: Click OK - Click Save.
After creating a new assembly from an assembly file, the following settings in your new assembly can be different from your source assembly, and may need to be changed:
| Element | Description |
|
Publishing Settings Library |
Overlays – The Overlays Template File is reset to null. |
| In the new Assembly |
— The extra fields with values assigned to the folder based on the set Context of Use Code are imported successfully. — After the import, the extended fields with assigned values are displayed in the appropriate folder in the same order as they were assigned. — The assembly file is imported successfully if there is an inactive CV Profile with required CVs. — If an xml file is imported without the source Publishing Settings Library and the extra fields with values assigned to the folder based on the set Context of Use Code are not found in the system, an appropriate message will be displayed on the Create Assembly page. — If CV Profiles with appropriate CVs exist in Data Administration > CV Profile Values, CV Profiles selected in Publishing Settings are imported successfully. Any CV Profile containing all the CVs indicated in the .xml file is taken. — When creating a new assembly template from assembly file, the Senderdefined Keyword values of folders are always imported empty. — If Applicant Contact ID values match in Ennov InSight database and in xml file, the Applicant Contact field is populated with the values. — If the initial Code value contains zeros after a character or symbol and ends with the number, the Code is generated based on the largest value that contains the same number of zeros after the character or symbol. Example:
— The Sender-defined Keywords are not imported and an assembly is not created from an assembly file when:
