| Update multiple external links You can update multiple links to external files and folders using Maintenance > User > User defined > Update Multiple External Links. You are able to update links to AccountRight files, document folders and Workpapers documents.
For example, use Update Multiple External Links if you want to migrate data to a different server. All file and folder links must then be updated with the new server name. You specify the values that you would like to change and the link type(s) to which the changes are applied. Another example of using the Update Multiple External Links feature is, if you want to move client document folders which are currently located in c:\Documents to c:\Client Documents you must update the folder links. Enter c:\Documents in the Replace field and enter c:\Client Documents in the With field. Select the Client document folders links option in the In section and click OK. Access to Update Multiple External Links is denied by default to all users except to the superuser group. To enable access change the [Maintenance][User Defined][Update Multiple External Links] task permission in the Central Product. | UI Expand |
