Windchill PDF/DXF export file name

[mbonka]

Hello all,

our company is implementing Windchill and l wanna ask you about drawing exports. Our saint rule in WCH is: EACH FILE ONLY ONCE!

But up to now my praxis was fallowing: During the project progress l exported PDF, send it to my chef via email, afterwards he marked some changes and send it back to me. l made all necessary changes and the circle continue again and again ...

25.2.2014 --- export drw to PDF and saved it to sudirectory ...export / 2014_02_25 / 15009_V01-00_00_00.pdf

30.2.2014 --- export drw to PDF and saved it to sudirectory ...export / 2014_02_30 / 15009_V01-00_00_00.pdf

My first question is: What name schema for exports (PDF, DXF) should l choose?

1. Show a revision and version of source drw? ---> 15009_V01-00_00_00_A1.pdf ---> don´t think it´s a good idea

2. Show a datum of creation? ---> 15009_V01-00_00_00_2015_02_30.pdf ---> don´t think it´s a good idea ---> if l will do 2 exports in same day, it will doesn´t work

My second question is: What are your expiriences and praxis with file naming?

Thx all for ideas...

Well at last!!!

Generall documentation don´t have to be unique name. This "saint rule" is only for CAD documentation.

My solution:

25.2.2014 --- export drw to PDF and saved it to sudirectory ...export / 2014_02_25 / 15009_V01-00_00_00.pdf

30.2.2014 --- export drw to PDF and saved it to sudirectory ...export / 2014_02_30 / 15009_V01-00_00_00.pdf

Result:

The day when l learn nothing is lost
