LaserVault DMS Reference Guide
File Import
The LaserVault File Import utility can be used to import files into DMS. It will add a record, set field
values as defined in the configuration file and then attach a file.
Command Line Parameters
LVDMSFileImport /Config=[Path and file name of config file] /FilePath=[Path to
folder that contains files] /FLD_[FieldName]=[FieldValue]
/CONFIG= This defines the path to the configuration file. If this is not specified then the program will
attempt to use the LVDMSFileImport.xml file in the same folder where the exe is located.
/FilePath=
This defines the path where the files are stored.
/FLD_[FieldName]= This allows you to override a field value. The value from the command line will
be used instead of the value defined in the config file. This will normally be used to supply a report
date when processing back dates.
If any parameter value contains spaces, surround it with double quotes.
Example:
/CONFIG=”C:\Test Folder\Config.xml”
