🎯What's New in PowerDesktop

24.7.1

Released on July 12, 2024

New Features

Description

All Work import job types now have an option to automatically delete source files after they’ve been successfully imported.

Work export jobs can now automatically generate a CSV index file after all items in the job have been processed. Options related to the CSV output of a Work export job can be found in the export editor’s new CSV tab.

The layout of CSV index files are now configurable via CSV templates, which define the names, order, and sorting of the fields to include in the tabular output. Custom CSV templates can be created, modified, and deleted via the new “CSV Template Manager”, which can be accessed from the Work Explorer ribbon.

When importing into Work, you can now specify any user as the owner of folders created by the import job.

CAM customers using SSO can now activate PowerDesktop without setting a user password.

Note: Regardless of your installation’s previous activation status, you will be required to log in to CAM the first time you launch the application after upgrading.

When importing files into Work via Folder Import, you can now choose whether imported email messages are named after their original file name or subject.

Import into and exports out of http://cloudimanage.com can now better handle server errors related to rate limiting.

To minimize data loss due to an application crash or forced shutdown, all jobs now save changes to job items immediately after they’ve been processed.

When connected to an on-premises or ”imanage.work” Work server, subfolders are now retrieved recursively to avoid timeout errors related to poor search performance in large workspaces.

CSV index files for Work export jobs can now include columns for Default Security, Last User, and Last User Description.

In the Document Number field in Search Documents, you can now search for:

  • A range of document numbers (e.g., “1-100”).

  • All documents greater or less than a specific number (e.g., “>=100” or “<=100”).

Labels in the Search Documents window now automatically update to match the captions of the selected target library.

The “Export Results” window and the corresponding toolbar button in the Work export job editor have been renamed “Create CSV”.

You can now instantly update the grid layout in “Create CSV” using the new “Template” drop-drop menu, which lists all existing custom and default CSV templates.

The “Hide Empty Columns” checkbox in “Create CSV” has been replaced with a “Remove Empty Columns” button that hides any visible metadata columns containing no data. You can restore hidden column by selecting a template, clicking “Reset Grid”, or dragging their name from the Column Chooser, which can be opened from the column header right-click menu.

After removing a Work connection, all open Work Explorer windows using that connection will now immediately close.

Jobs listed in the completed section of the Dashboard can now be sorted by any column.

Application log entries for Work Universal API requests sent to http://cloudimanage.com now include the associated request ID, which can be shared with iManage when troubleshooting server errors.

Note: API requests are only logged when the minimum logging level is set to “Verbose”.

The size of the MSI installer has been reduced to 50 MB.
