New Features of Autodesk Vault 2022
Autodesk Vault data management software is specifically written to help professionals involved in BIM, construction, engineering or digital prototyping workflows effectively manage their design data.
Autodesk Vault 2022 is made with new customer-driven features and enhancements. Autodesk Vault 2022 delivers a powerful set of document management tools with direct links from raw CAD data which can then be made available to the global enterprise and non- CAD users where required, including integration with Microsoft SharePoint, Outlook and also external ERP systems.
Inventor Model States and Vault 2022
Vault 2022 now supports Inventor Model States. With this, you can now create multiple representations of a part or assembly within a single document in Inventor. You can also open files with different model states directly from Vault, then edit or place the model in an assembly.
Vault helps you to:
- Open and place a model state file from Vault
- Assign items to model states with different part numbers
- Check-in a model state file from the Inventor Vault add-in to the Vault client
- Map item properties to model state iProperties
New filters in Duplicate Search
With Vault 2022, you can filter duplicate search results in the Find Duplicates panel within Inventor like material, mirrored parts, and exact matches. New filters are added to expand the Duplicate Search criteria. After you perform a search, you can filter results based on various criteria such as: same material, mirrored parts, and exact matches.
User and Group Management
Administrators can more easily manage users, groups and profile attributes for greater productivity. Vault provides better integration with active directory and flexible authentication options for internal and external users to reduce system management costs.
With Vault User and Group Management, you can:
- Track User Logins
- Get Profile Attributes
- Get easy user interface
- Set a friendly user display name
Vault 2022 Web Browser
With an entirely redesigned and modern interface, the Vault 2022 Thin Client offers many new and improved features. It allows you to access and view design data, bill of materials, change orders, and more using only your web browser and Vault credentials. The Thin Client can be used in web browsers on desktop computers and tablet devices.
Replication Technology Enhancement
The merge replication technology with transactional replication SQL technology, this simplifies your database replication maintenance as database updates happen on the publisher and get sent to the subscribers.
All read operations continue on the subscriber, but the write operations only occur on the publisher. The change eliminates the need for ownership and defines the publisher as the only writeable server. All data on the publisher is replicated to the subscribers to keep them up to date. The merge replication configuration is no longer supported in Vault 2022. You can easily remove the existing replication environment and set up a new one manually when launching the ADMS console.
Autodesk ID Integration
Autodesk ID integration with Vault 2022 allows administrators to control user authentication and access to the Vault environment. You can now login using any of the following authentication options enabled by the administrator:
- Windows Authentication using Windows Active Directory credentials
- Vault Account which requires a Vault-specific username with a password
- Autodesk ID credentials
More Benefits for Vault 2022
- More productivity for CAD users: Supports Inventor and Revit interoperability and adds significant workflow and usability improvements.
- Smart Duplicate Reduction: Compares 3D shapes and delivers insights on duplicate content.
- More Efficiency for Administrators: Allows more granularity within the security model and minimizes deployment and maintenance downtime.
In conclusion, for participants who are non-CAD users, ensure you can access and work with engineering data in the office or on the go. Whether with the Vault mobile app, or the new browser experience, you can stay connected to real-time data. Take design data with you onto the shop floor, on-site or out to meet your customer.
