Importing a tree structure (with files) from Windows Explorer to the Vault

In PowerUser, it was possible to simply drag and drop a complete tree structure (folder + files) from Windows Explorer to an unmanaged branch of the vault.

It is no longer the case in PowerWeb.

This is particulary useful:

  • to archive sets of documents provided by subcontractors while keeping the original structure. In many cases, we dedicate a separate Meridian Vault for this purpose (not everybody can use Meridian Portal).

  • during the initial migration process: it is often useful to import documents this way and then using Meridian properties mass edition features to update the metadata.

Drag and drop is not necessary required: A command that is able to import a Zip file that will be automatically expanded in the destination vault folder can be a nice solution.

    Bonjour, pour la gestion des DOE nous utilisons cette fonctionnalité avec la version PowerUser 2019R2. Tous les documents d'un projet et de travaux peuvent être importés par un simple glissé déposé dans MERIDIAN . Nous souhaitons conserver cette fonctionnalité lorsque nous effectuerons notre migration sur la version PowerWeb afin d'éviter de devoir refaire tout le développement de nos coffres MERDIAN. Merci pour votre soutient.
