New features

The following new features have been added in this release of Smart Mover:

  • The Enterprise Download, Enterprise to Elvis Transfer, Enterprise Transfer, Enterprise Mod MetaData Tasks all now include the option to set their Status to a given Name. This is in addition to the existing option "Set to Next".

Note: It is important that the provided Status Name exists for all the Brand and Object Type combinations that are selected by the query. If that Status Name is invalid for a particular object then an error will be generated and the current Status will not be changed.

  • The Elvis Download, Elvis Check Out & In, Elvis Transfer to Enterprise, Elvis Mod MetaData, and Elvis Delete Assets Tasks now allow the use of a "Query String" in addition to the existing "Query Builder" to select the assets that should be acted upon.

The "Query String" uses the same syntax as the Elvis Pro Client app "Search" field. This way, the string can be constructed using the Pro Client and then copied and pasted into the Smart Mover setup window. Keep in mind that the "Query String" will not apply any Filters that you may be using in the Pro Client; it must therefore select the appropriate assets without Filters.

If you have both a "Query String" and a query built with the "Builder" then only the "Query String" will be used to select the desired assets and the "Builder" setting will be ignored.

For more detailed information about the "Query String" syntax, click the link located just below the field in the Task Setup window or visit Searching for files in Elvis 6 by using a query.

Note: AWS Elvis 5 installations with Elastic and Application Load Balancers are supported.

  • The Enterprise Mod MetaData Task now includes the option to "unlock" (abort check-out) the selected objects.

Note: Use this feature carefully; improperly unlocking objects could lead to workflow problems.

  • The Enterprise Mod MetaData Task now allows you to copy field values from one metadata field into another for each selected object. This is done by entering a valid Xpath statement proceeded with a "&" into the "value" for that field. For example if you wanted to put the Status Name of the Object into a custom field then set its "Value" to "&//WorkflowMetaData/State/Name".

Notes:

  • The Xpath statements must comply with the current version of the SCEnterprise.wsdl. If this is unclear please post a description of what you need to do to the Smart Mover User Forum.
  • Be careful to apply the correct data type to the field. For example, if the field is "boolean" then the value must be "0", "1", "true" or "false"; "integers", "doubles", "dates" and "datetimes" must also be honored. "string", "multistring" and others can be most any value. Only single values are supported and you should make sure that any "multilist" values are valid for that field.
  • The AWS Translate and Google Translate Tasks can now also translate Print articles (.wcml files).

Notes: 

  • Any character or paragraph styles will not be applied in the translated file. However, the first paragraph style found in each "story element/component" will be applied to that entire "story element/component". It is therefore best to do any translations before any extensive styling is applied.
  • There can be no pending Track Changes in the file. If there are then the file will not be translated and placed in the error folder.

Changes

The following changes have been implemented in this release of Smart Mover:

  • The Twitter character limit has been increased to 280.
  • The AWS Translate Task no longer requires one language to be English. AWS removed this requirement so this change was made.
  • The AWS Translate Task now also supports Korean and Indonesian.
  • The "Smart Mover Error Files" folder has been moved from the "Smart Mover Service Support" folder into the "Base Path".

Note: This was done to allow easier access to the files and possibly use a Smart Mover Process to manage them. Any existing files will automatically be moved to the new location when Smart Mover Service 10.2.0 is first launched.

If you have to revert to an older version of SMS then a new folder in the old location will be created and used, potentially resulting in files in both locations.

The new error folder in the "Base Path" has been named "SMS_Error_Files".
