General

Use the General preferences category, to specify your preferences such as, Query Search Default and File Name Uniqueness.

File Name Uniqueness

If this check box is selected, the names of the files stored in PLM are unique. If this check box is cleared, you can store multiple files with identical file names in PLM but in different projects. It is not recommended to clear this check box, since it might cause problems if you want to download a file while a file with an identical name already exists locally. Three options are available for this setting.

  • Unique across all projects: Only one file can be saved with a given name into PLM from Office integration.
  • Unique per Project: At most one file with a given name can be saved in a project.
  • Duplicate file name is allowed: Multiple files with a given name can be saved in PLM.
Query Search Default
This option defines the default search object in Infor PLM > Download files from PLM tool. The following options are available:
  • File
  • Document
  • Item
