Generate Blueprint Document

[Former Member]

All,

I know how to Generate the Blueprint Document using SOLAR01. However we are using this feature more for a mass download of all documents of a certain documentation type instead of generating the actual blueprint document. Does anyone know how to get the name of the document in Solution Manager to be the name of the document that gets exported instead of the logical name. So for example:

This is the current file name: 4695F8A00AB05599E10000003630908A.DOC but I would like it be something like 01.00.00.00 Sales Order.DOC

Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks in advance.

His problem is when the documents are downloaded to the computer for compilation into the one Blueprint document the files are given new names with a bunch of random looking characters instead of keeping the original file name.

However, don't think it's possible without modifying Blueprint Generator or creating a custom macro that loops through all files in the Blueprint folder, opens them up, reads the name you want (which would need to be maintained in a custom property field), and renaming it.

Hello Ryan,

It is possible to find out the original document name from the downloaded file name but it may be too tedious to work with:

Open the file "blue.dat" with MS Word, choose file conversion: Unicode, and search in the file for the string "4695F8A00AB05599E10000003630908A.DOC" (in your example). You will find the original document name then 5 lines underneath the line containing the string (in most cases; there are exceptions).
