A publishing job defines the source and destination systems and the options that are used to publish documents between the systems. You create a publishing job from one of the publishing job templates in Meridian Enterprise Server Administration Console. A template provides specific options that depend on the type of the source or destination system.
At least one rendering profile must be specified for every publishing job that will generate renditions.
The available job templates include:
-
Publish: Publishes documents or renditions from a source system to a destination system other than Meridian Explorer.
-
Rendition: Creates renditions within the Meridian Enterprise vault.
-
Package export: Publishes an export package that contains documents to a Windows file system or to Meridian Portal.
-
Synchronization
-
Configurable synchronization: Publishes documents from a Meridian Enterprise vault to a Meridian Explorer repository. The synchronization will include project folders created by the Meridian Advanced Project Workflow component.
-
Data Library synchronization: Publishes documents from a Meridian Enterprise vault to a Meridian Enterprise Data Library repository. This job type has no configurable options other than the vault selection.
-
-
Synchronize Content
-
Update to vault: Synchronizes references from the file and stores title block data in the Meridian Enterprise vault.
-
Publishing jobs run in Meridian Enterprise Server and each job can run either manually or as a scheduled task.
You must be a member of a Accruent group with the Publisher Configurators or Application Administrators permission to create or manage a publishing job.
To use publishing jobs, perform the following steps in the order listed, regardless of the job template that was used to create the job:
