Setting Naming Rules

Job naming rules can be defined to control how jobs must be named. Naming rules can be applied at

1. The system level – to apply to all jobs (via the System Rules section of the 12d Synergy Administrator)
2. The job level – to apply to all sub jobs of a job
3. For a job template – so the created jobs match the template name

Naming rules follow a simple syntax, made up of many different parts, but they are best put together using the provided name builder. Some parts are pre-defined, such as when using attribute values, while others may be interactive and require input from the user.

Naming Rule for Jobs

• While staying in the template area naming rules can be applied to Jobs

Naming Rules for Folders

Folder naming rules can also be done in editing a Job. This can be done in either Administrator or the Client.

• In the Standard Job Template job, edit the 02 Engineering/Photos folder

Many different options and combinations exist; the following is an example of what can be achieved.

• Close the folder editor

To test the naming rule for the photo folder

• From Windows Explorer, Drag and Drop the Your-Company.jpg into the folder.
