    Transcript

    00:08

    We'll be looking at how the Job Processor can automate certain tasks to increase your productivity,

    00:14

    and optimize business and collaborative processes.

    00:18

    Over the years, the Job Processor has become one of the biggest business impactors for Vault customers.

    00:26

    Using one or several Job Processors,

    00:28

    you can take the workload of the individual users while the Job Server cues the submitted tasks and job Processors line up to do the work.

    00:40

    Is that simple enough?

    00:42

    Well, it should be once you have a good understanding of how it all works, how the components fit together,

    00:49

    what the requirements are, and how this will work best in your organization.

    00:55

    You will need to make decisions as to what you use the Job Processors for, whether you can justify having a stand-alone Job Processor,

    01:04

    license usage, and hardware versus time loss to users, and what to expect when the Job Processor cohabitates on designers' machines.

    01:16

    And when you bring it down to collaboration, which is the topic of this series,

    01:20

    it is easy to see how automating repetitive tasks can improve the collaboration workflows.

    01:28

    Jobs are submitted to the job server when a user checks in a file which needs a visualization file created,

    01:36

    a user invokes an update view command inside of the Vault Client Application,

    01:42

    autoloader is used to load files into the vault and visualization files are needed,

    01:49

    a status change occurs on a file and an updated visualization file is needed.

    01:55

    A user invokes a "Create PDF" command inside of the Vault Client Application.

    02:01

    A status change occurs on a file and an updated PDF file is needed.

    02:07

    A status change occurs on a file and a custom job is needed.

    02:11

    Or, a status change occurs on a file and properties need to be synchronized in the file.

    02:19

    So, here is an example of how the Job Processor complements Vault's collaboration functionalities.

    02:27

    Imagine that you have to provide a customer with an up-to-date PDF of an Inventor drawing,

    02:33

    each time the file gets to the Full Review state in its life cycle.

    02:39

    With the appropriate configuration, when you change your state to Full Review,

    02:43

    a job is created in the queue and the Job Processor creates a new PDF file and stores it in the Vault database.

    02:53

    Vault then uses its Project Sync functionality to upload the file to the relevant folder in Fusion Team.

    03:01

    Finally, a customer receives an email notification.

    03:05

    For this example, he has access to this Fusion Team hub and he has enabled email notifications.

    03:14

    Now a few words about the Enterprise add-on for Vault.

    03:19

    This add-on is a set of proven data management components which are not part of the core Vault product,

    03:26

    and which is developed, supported and maintained by Autodesk consulting.

    03:31

    The reason I mentioned this add-on is that it adds many additional jobs to the Job Processor,

    03:38

    such as: It can publish on add checking events, it has cancel conditions,

    03:45

    you can create compound jobs, multiple jobs in a defined order,

    03:50

    you can do single multi select and folder publishing,

    03:55

    and you can send email notifications upon life cycle state change.

    04:01

    If you wish to know more about this add-on, please contact your Autodesk representative.

    04:08

    I hope this presentation was informative about how a Job Processor can increase your productivity,

    04:14

    and optimize business and collaborative processes.
