Why Bring Forward Annotations is Not Visible for Video Annotations in Vault PromoMats and Medical?
/hc/en-us/articles/4402585274395-Why-Bring-Forward-Annotations-is-Not-Visible-for-Video-Annotations-in-Vault-PromoMats-and-Medical
2025-01-18 08:47:35 UTC
Question:
Why Bring Forward Annotations is not visible for video annotations in Vault PromoMats and Medical?
Answer:
When bringing forward video annotations (notes and links), Vault uses the same time signature and coordinates whenever possible.
By uploading a new version where the file type is different from the video files supported, Vault is not able to detect the timestamp of the annotations.
Therefore, the Bring Forward Annotation button is not visible even if the user has the permissions needed to do so:
The same situation happens when the new version uploaded is a video file and the previous file format is a different file format from the video.
The Bring Forward Annotation icon is not visible in this scenario neither:

How Can Admins Migrate an Email Template Created Using Bee Editor?
/hc/en-us/articles/30182463829915-How-Can-Admins-Migrate-an-Email-Template-Created-Using-Bee-Editor
2024-10-18 14:42:40 UTC
Question:
How can admins migrate an email template created using Bee Editor and still be able to edit the template in the target Vault?
Answer:
Creating BEE Content
A Content Admin that would like to migrate BEE content to a different Vault must have
access to a Veeva Vault with BEE embedded.
- Enable BEE functionality in the source Vault using the configuration steps mentioned here.
- In the source Vault, from the top-right corner of the screen, click Create -> Placeholder.
- In the Choose document type field select the Email Template option.
- Click Next. Complete all of the required fields for the Email Template and click
Save.
- In the top-right corner of the screen, click the ellipsis -> Edit Email.
- The embedded BEE editor is launched.
- Edit the email using the right-hand pane to drag and drop elements into the email
template.
- Keep track of any images that were placed within the Email Template. These
image files must be sent to the target Vault and loaded into the Email
Template in that Vault instance.
- Once editing is completed, click Save in the top right corner of the screen.
- Click the Document Files icon on the right. Then, click Download on the Source Document in the dropdown menu to download the HTML document of the email template.
- Next, click the ellipsis next to Email Editor to download the Email Editor rendition (JSON document) of the Email Template.
- Download the Assets.
- In the right-hand pane click Document Information. Next, expand the Assets section by clicking on the Assets header.
- Click the download icon to download the images that were used in the email template.
As previously mentioned, the images used in the Email Template must be passed to the
target Vault. The zip that was downloaded from the Assets header contains all
images used within the Email Template.
The HTML document of the Email Template, JSON document of the Email Template, and all
image files that were included in the Email Template must be passed on to the target Vault.
Loading BEE Content Into the Target Vault
To load BEE content into the target Vault, a Content Admin will require the following:
- The HTML of the Email Template. In Vault, this is referred to as the Source Document (downloaded in step 7 above).
- The Email Editor rendition (JSON file) of the Email Template (downloaded in step 8 above).
- Any images that exist in the Email Template (downloaded in step 9 above).
Once a Content Admin has these files, the following steps should be followed to upload BEE
content to the target Vault:
- In the target Vault, from the top-right corner of the screen, click Create -> Upload.
- Upload the HTML of the Email Template. In the Choose document type field select the Email Template option.
- Click Next. Complete all of the required fields for the Email Template and click
Save.
- On the right-hand pane click Document Files.
- Click the + icon next to the Renditions section.
- Choose Email Editor for the rendition type.
- Select Choose a File and navigate to the JSON document of the Email Template and
select it.
- Click Upload.
- Click the ellipsis in the top-right corner of the screen then Edit Email.
- The following steps must be repeated for every image that exists in the Email Template.
- Select the image element in the left-hand pane, choose Change Image.
- From the BEE File Manager, click Upload and upload the image that is being
changed to the BEE image library. Once the image is uploaded, it will be
available in the BEE File Manager. Select the newly uploaded image and click Insert.
- Once all images have been updated, click Save.
- If the document does not re-render, choose the ellipsis and choose Re-render Document.
Note: If the document is being duplicated in the same Vault, disregard step 6 through 8 of the Loading BEE Content Into the Target Vault section.

How to Show Overprinting in PDF Source Files in Vault PromoMats and Medical?
/hc/en-us/articles/16145162092187-How-to-Show-Overprinting-in-PDF-Source-Files-in-Vault-PromoMats-and-Medical
2025-01-18 07:23:55 UTC
Question:
How to show overprinting in PDF Source Files in Vault PromoMats and Medical?
Answer:
Flattening files before uploading them into Vault can avoid potential issues as flattening removes transparency information and converts images and text to a format that Vault can interpret and render.
At times, when a user attempts to flatten a document, the Print Preview window may not display any images or text, and Vault does not render the PDF Source File properly:
To solve this, users can enable the Simulate Overprinting option as follows:
- Open the PDF Source File in Acrobat
- Select File > Print
- Select Microsoft Print To PDF as the printer
- Open Advanced options.
- In the Output section, select Simulate Overprinting, and click OK.
- Print and save as a PDF copy to replace the Viewable Rendition in Vault.

Why Custom Icons Do Not Display in Vault PromoMats When Using BEE Editor?
/hc/en-us/articles/5197275594523-Why-Custom-Icons-Do-Not-Display-in-Vault-PromoMats-When-Using-BEE-Editor
2025-01-18 08:58:24 UTC
Question:
Why custom icons do not display in Vault PromoMats when using BEE Editor?
Answer:
When users add custom icons to an email template, these icons do not appear, appear as a blank square, or as a broken image icon:
When the custom icon is added to the email template as a URL, or if the user uses social icons, this issue does not happen as the HTML source for these icons includes URLs stored on a website.
However, any images uploaded to BEE Editor and used as customs icons are not automatically added to the Assets folder that Vault creates when the user saves an email template in BEE Editor.
To resolve this, the user needs to do the following:
- Download the Assets folder.
- Modify the folder manually to include any relevant icons.
- Upload the folder to Vault again.

2025-01-18 08:39:09 UTC
Question:
Why Advanced Logic Syntax is not Valid in a Report in Vault PromoMats and Medical?
Answer:
Advanced Logic is a feature which allows the users to get a wider selection of records within a report. The connectors OR and AND must be used in the proper way.
There are many reasons why the syntax of the connecter is not valid:
- The filters used in the report do not have a corresponding number. These filters include roles, formula fields, and relationship concerns.
The applied filter is not counted and the syntax fails to validate.
- The selected report type does not support the Advanced Logic feature. If the report type is one of the report types listed below, the Advanced Logic feature does not appear in the Filters:
Workflow
Multi-pass
Document relationship
Binder
Read and Understood
- The connector AND is used in different field objects. By running the report with fields used in different objects, there are no records found in the report.

2024-09-04 18:57:32 UTC
Overview:
We have implemented a native federated search engine to help our customers find the information they need more easily. In addition, when they search for knowledge articles, it will show them the source of the content:
- Articles - written by Support Agents
- Product Help - broken down by product pages that contain that exact word or phrase
- Community posts
The following example shows a search on Vault id. The search engine tries to find all articles that contain the word Vault or the word Id anywhere within the article. On the right-hand side of the screenshot, the Search Results display brief previews of content matching the search criteria. Based on the Source that is selected on the left, the right side list of results changes.
This search shows that numerous results matched that criteria. Notice that 3209 Articles are returned due to a wide search range.
To refine the search, enter "Vault id" as the search criteria. The double quotes are used in the search criteria to allow the search engine to find any content that contains that phrase. The sources of the resulting content appear on the left side of the search results. Notice that 36 Articles are returned due to a narrow search range based on that exact phrase.
