Example: How are the common settings used?

This example uses the following values for the common settings section of the configuration file for Word.

<Common Settings>
<add key = "Parser" value = "Teamcenter.TcIDToIDParser.WordIDParser;
C:\Program Files (x86)\Siemens\Teamcenter 9\TcWord2K7DocImp\TcIDToIDParser.dll"/>
<add key = "PropDebugComments" value = "false"/>
<add key = "LinkDebugComments" value = "false"/>
<add key = "DefaultSpecType" value="RequirementSpec" />
<add key = "IDValidationPattern" value="[[]*:[A-Za-z0-9_]{1,}-[0-9]{6}[]]"/>
<add key = "IDPrefix" value = "ID,ID2,ID3,CID" />
<add key = "IDProperty" value = "object_name" />
<add key = "Default Saved Query" value = "Item ID" />
<add key = "Search" value="OOTBSearch" />
</Common Settings>

The following information shows how some of the key values are used in the common settings section.

Text in common settings section	How is the setting used?
<add key = "IDPrefix" value = "ID,ID2,ID3,CID" />	In the unstructured Word or Excel document, you assign an identifier for the requirement information you want to import to Teamcenter. In the Assign ID dialog box, the list of valid prefixes from the IDPrefix key is displayed when you click the Prefix box. The identifier prefixes are used to match a specific rule in the parser rules.
<add key = "IDProperty" value = "object_name" />	In the unstructured Word or Excel document, you assign the following identifiers for a requirement revision and a paragraph revision: [ID:ENG-FNC-TSC01], [CID:ENG-FNC-FSR01]. You import the unstructured document to Teamcenter. After the import, the identifier is set to the IDProperty value. The object name does not contain the identifier prefix values such as ID or CID. As the resulting requirement structure shows, the identifiers are set to the object names in Teamcenter (e.g. 0036/A-ReqSpec1, REQ-01/A;1– ENG-FNC–TSC01 as the object name, 0037/A;1– ENG-FNC–FSR01 as the object name).
<add key="DefaultSavedQuery" value="Item ID" />	The Item ID value is used as the default when searching requirement specifications that you want to reimport for Update or Revise.

The IDProperty value is also used for the search criteria when searching for existing requirement information in Teamcenter from an unstructured Word or Excel document. For example, in the Search dialog box, you can type *9999* in the Search Criteria box to search for all requirement revisions that have the string 9999 as part of the object name.
