Fin: Toiminnallisia uudistuksia 2020
![]()
These reforms are presented in Vertex Flow's main version 20.0.00 (Vertex 2020) |
Search functionality improved |
When you need to search for objects from a variety of types, such as items, models and drawings, you can now find a button for this.

Now you can target your search to Flow object groups by selecting the main title in the Archive Tree. Previously, you could only search through the tree by selecting the object type.

If you remember the Classification, typing it to a search card may be faster than searching it through the Classification selection.
Now you will get a list of related documents and you can open the desired format from the list.
Use the symbol
to get a list of the files associated with the object.

The list does not open a quick browsing image, ie a jpg file.
Connections |
Connections block no longer shows configured items and this speeds up the opening of connections.

You can find the connections of configured items with the function Tool > Connections > Show
The data in the Connections block does not matter when editing the attribute information, so the block is closed by default. This speeds up the operation especially if there are many other objects associated with the object being edited.

Reports |
If you have Drawing (Other) type documents in the item structure and they have PDF images, these images will now be included in the PDF book. Previously, only PDFs of Vertex drawings were collected in the book.

You can now select the layers in the Binder tool from which documentation is collected in the PDF.
You can find the mapping tool for your Products and Projects: Tools> Binder Tool.

You'll get customized Excel templates to generate reports on the contents of your Trolley to suit your needs.

The administrator can add the updated Excel 2007 xlsx templates to the Flow portal, where you will also find sample templates.
Assistive messages and message processing |
If you have defined the contents of the Action field for your document but you are missing an expiration date (Field: Valid between), the program will note this.

The item structure is now always checked when the item structure is checked in, and if loops are detected in the item structure, they are reported.

Other improvements |
When the Flow Archive tab is activated, the program looks at the contents of the Trolleys and tells you the current status.

Now you can close the blocks when you have edited the properties of the object. In version 19.0, blocks could not be closed when editing the properties, and this was embarrassing especially with the Connentions block, as there could be hundreds of connections.
Copying a Product instance to a New Product instance copy now includes Option Selections and product connections.
Product instance > Copy...
Product instance > Option selection...
