UserClient
This tutorial introduces the main UserClient functions.
Components are a central concept to versiondog. These are directories with versiondog-specific properties in which project data is stored. A description of how components are administrated in the UserClient is to be found here.
The UserClient enables you to make changes to a project in three simple steps:
- Check-Out: Copying data from the remote server archive to the client archive on the local PC
- Editing the project with an editor
- Check-In: Creating a new version of the data and then copying it from the client’s PCÂ to the server
If you want for the project to be processed by an external supplier, who cannot access your system, the functions Supplier Check-Out and SmartImport for supplier projects are available for the Check-Out and the Check-In after their editing.
In UserClient,you can also compare component versions with each other as well as execute jobs and view job results. Jobs are created and configured in the AdminClient.
Tags enable the user to add details to existing versions.
Quicksave allows you to temporarily save copies of your work in progress on the server without creating a new version.
Depending on the configuration, you have the possibility to delete items on the server and manually synchronize the data in the UserClientwith those on the server.
