SUMMARY OF ISSUES ADDRESSED

Known Issues Resolved
• Migration of a 2010 base vault (that contains property groups) to a 2011 base vault results in User Defined Properties (UDP) that will give an error when you try to edit them.
• Not handling some non-English regional settings. For example comma used as a separator instead of a decimal will result in improper setting of User Defined Property values or may result in an error.
• Not handling some Date property mappings when client and server are in different time zones.
• Search not working properly after migration on a replicated site.
• Mapping an AutoCAD Electrical reference designator with a UDP (reference designator) will block items from being assigned or updated.
