In this video,
00:07
let's see how to change states of files involved by
00:10
accessing the change state command in the authoring CAD application,
00:14
such as Inventor,
00:16
AutoCAD,
00:16
etc.
00:20
Let's begin with an example in Inventor.
00:27
I have opened a file from the recent list that was opened from Vault.
00:33
Click on the Vault tab.
00:35
Make sure that you have logged into the Vault.
00:40
Change the state of the file
00:42
right within the Inventor.
00:44
Use the change state option in the Vault ribbon.
00:48
Change State.
00:51
Choose the desired state here.
00:53
You can see the current state of the file
00:56
and the lifecycle definition.
01:00
In this case,
01:01
it is a reviewer
01:03
who has an option
01:04
to send it back to work in progress or to send it for approval.
01:12
Let's assume that
01:13
the reviewer wants to send it back to
01:15
the drafter,
01:17
and recommend some changes as per the issue.
01:31
Just click OK.
01:33
Let's see the status of the file in Vault.
01:43
Was in review,
01:44
refresh.
01:48
See that the status of the file has been changed
01:51
for the selected file.
01:53
The comment can also be seen here.
01:57
Let's look at
01:58
an example in AutoCAD.
02:02
I have a file open here,
02:04
which was recently checked in.
02:09
File is available in Vault
02:11
here,
02:16
And it's in work in progress state.
02:22
Let's change the state.
02:23
The next state available.
02:25
The current state as per the configuration
02:29
of the lifecycle available.
02:32
The possible transition is
02:34
from work in progress to released.
02:38
Let's go ahead,
02:38
click OK.
02:45
Command has been executed.
02:47
Just confirm that,
02:49
the Vault client.
02:56
You can see that the file has been released in Vault.
03:03
Though it is a convenience
03:05
to change state of files from the authoring applications,
03:09
the options are limited.
03:15
Hence, it is a recommended practice
03:18
to always
03:19
use a Vault client
03:21
to change state of a file or assembly so that you have better visibility
03:26
on the dependent files
03:28
and parents as well.

The Change State command in the Inventor Vault add-in allows users to modify a file or group of files to enforce certain behaviors. Examples of states include, Work in Progress, Quick Change, and Obsolete.
Note: You can change the state of files which have been modified in memory as well as files that are checked into the Vault.
You can modify the lifecycle state for a file or group of files to enforce certain lifecycle behaviors (e.g.,Work in Progress, Released, Obsolete) with the AutoCAD Vault add-in.
Behaviors for a particular state can be altered by an administrator in the Autodesk Vault Client.
Note: You can change the state of files which have been modified in memory as well as files that are checked into the Vault.
The Change State command allows users to modify a file or group of files' lifecycle state to enforce certain process behaviors. Examples of states include, Work in Progress, Quick Change, and Obsolete.
