Exporting Comments from a Document
This topic describes the process of exporting and recording responses to comments created in AssetWise ALIM for Transportation. Note that only approved comments are exported, and documents must also be approved.
When you export comments from the document, you can only export one document at a time. If you want to export multiple documents to a single spreadsheet at one time, then you must export from the Basket (see Exporting Comments from the Basket, or via Search results (see Exporting Comments from Search Results).
Note: Specific server
configuration is required for this feature. Refer to
"Configuring Comments Tracking for Importing and
Exporting Data" in the AssetWise
CONNECT Edition Implementation Guide.
Follow these steps to export comments.
- Navigate to the document that has been reviewed.
-
From the
Object menu, select
Export Comments.
For example,
A progress dialog appears while the comments are exporting.
-
When finished, click
Close.
Note: Regardless of whether the export was successful, an email with the subject line: "Comments Tracking Export complete" is sent to you. The content of the email indicates the status of the export, including an attached log file with job queue details. If files were attached to the Comment, then they will also be attached to the email, (multiple files will automatically be compressed into one .zip file).
- Save the exported Excel spreadsheet to a location of your choosing.
