I agree with James; it would be a valuable tool to have a 'Folder Structure Sync' within Vault that would set up the current Vault folder structure on our local drives. If I have a new user being set up, it would be very beneficial to be able to click one button and have the folder structure mimicked to the local drive. The need for this is apparently greater than Autodesk seems to realize.
If we have an issue that requires a computer to be reformatted, this would be a useful tool. I understand that the 'Workspace Sync' is there, but there are a myriad of reasons why it may not be the solution that we are looking for.
In a perfect environment where everything and everyone does exactly as is supposed to, maybe. But we all know that there are few perfect environments. Where I work, we store a completed machine in a folder named "Machine". The "machine" consists of numerous sub-assemblies. If a user has a fresh install with no Vault structure that has been mimicked to their local, it doesn't have that "Machine" folder.
Yes; when they perform a 'get' on all of the sub-assemblies, those sub-assemblies' folders are created, but no the "Machine" folder.
So when the new user goes to save the new Machine file, they would have to manually create the folder within their local folder and hopefully they didn't misspell "Machine". The same problem exists due to the way our pneumatic schematics are saved. We save our pneumatic schematics in a certain way that is a bit convoluted, but that is how it's done here and that is the way we need to be able to save. The folder tree for pneumatic schematics can branch out 3 or 4 times, depending on certain qualifications.
It can be a real pain in the backside to have to type in that folder structure manually. That is just one example; there are numerous others. It may boil down to the fact that when this company started using Vault they didn't take advantage of the software reseller providing some good workflow practices, and now it's so ingrained that it would be a nightmare to change.
I would also believe that there are many companies who are in the same predicament, hence the fact that it would be nice to be able to mimic the entire Vault folder structure outside of performing a 'get'.
Also; we seem to regularly deal with an issue in which deleting the local working folder seems to be the only way to solve the problem, but that is a whole other issue.
But in deleting the local working folder, you can see where it would be beneficial to be able to mimic the Vault folder structure with a click. This is needed. I believe some autodesk employees have even written apps for this in the past- not sure if they still work on present version. We use "frequently used subfolders" in our vault project file. When installing vault on new computers or when new employees start, that part of the "open" or "save" dialog box is blank because those folders do not exist locally.
We would also like an app that quickly just copies the folder structure from the vault to local drive so we can see those folders in these dialog boxes. Any update on this?
I thought this feature actually existed in the early days of vault? This is a request from some our users as well. We have a predefined folder structure that we use for each of our client projects. In this way you go into a project and have a hope of finding the information you want.
Some of our users mostly project managers are working in many of the folders. They find it convenient to get the entire folder structure to their working directory. In this way they can easily place new files where they belong.
Nu Pi folders in the Autodesk App store has the functionality. You can right click and get folder you looking at and all subfolders.
Some of our users find it very helpful. I would love to see this as a Vault Admin option that can be pushed to all users. I find that multiple folders of the same vendor different spelling are being added to vault only because the user didnt check to see if it already exists in Vault.
I spend hours each month just performing cleanup work. The ability to have replicated vault folder structure, without files, onto the users computer would fix this and many more issues. TubeMate 3.

PC Vault is a shareware program that acts as a bank vault, or safe, where you can keep you private information or files hidden and secure. Everything in the vault is protected with an advanced encryption, and requires a password your password to open the vault to access the information. Files and file structures can be added to the vault by a simple drag and drop operation.
It is also possible to create directory structures, add notes and password lists inside the vault. To open a file, just double click on it inside the vault. The program can be installed on your local hard drive or on a USB flash disc.
Using the program on a USB flash disc can be very useful since you might want to protect your files and make sure no one can access them even if your flash disc is lost.
