In this tip Brandon Anderson describes the process of moving an existing Plant 3D project into Vault.
Check a Local or Network Project into Vault
You may have a local copy open and can't figure why the "check-in" is greyed out. The reason it is greyed out is because the Vault Plugin does see the project as Checked Out because the project is not in the Vault. One of the easiest ways to put your local or network project into Vault is by using the command PLANTPROJECTTOVAULT.
Click yes to close your drawings and to continue to next screen.
Specify your sever name and Database prefix and select Start. The same process as when you put a project in Vault when the project is created will start. Once finished the local project will still be opened. You will need to close that project and open it again but this time from Vault. If any files are not in the project folder (for example, a word document that is linked in the Related files folder, or a line definition table LDT referenced by an Iso style), the project does not convert. A log file is created that allows you to identify project files that are not in the project folder.
