Working with a huge amount of files

Hi, sometimes we have to manage projects with many files. For example in case of documentation that comes from a CMS we have to manage thousands of xml files with a complex pattern name (for example, DF-66750-KUR-TR-00-01-000-1.xml)

For this kind of project, I need some features like:

File Panel:

  • Search for a file name and Filter for a regex expression (of course inside sub folders)
    [for example when you have a very log file name list or if you want analyse a set of files like *KUR-TR*]
  • A new column (editable field [sortable]) to store information
    [I would like to save info, for example: For this file remember to check this term before delivery or......]

Manual task Analysis:

  • Options to save each time also the Excel file in the Report folder or somewhere else
    [many time you need the Excel for lots of reason... so why do we have to save it manually each time?]

Report:

  • Give a custom name to the report
    [if you run analysis for different sets of files, or maybe in different period, or with different options, it is not so easy to find out which is the right analysis, because the name is still the same.]

Package:

  • Give a custom name to the package 

 

What do you think?

Kind regards,

Luca

  • Hi luca, Paul, Daniel,

    These ideas are now logged in ProdPad:

    IDEA 129 - ABILITY TO SEARCH FOR FILES IN THE FILES VIEW

    IDEA 130 - A NEW CUSTOM COLUMN IN THE FILES VIEW

    IDEA 131 - OPTION TO AUTOMATICALLY SAVE THE ANALYSIS REPORT IN EXCEL FORMAT

    IDEA 132 - ABILITY TO GIVE A CUSTOM NAME TO EACH REPORT YOU RUN

    In regards to the Idea: 'Give a custom name to the package' - can you give me more information on this one as this is already possible - unless of course I have mis-understood you:

    Thanks
