Multilingual Vault support

Since powerVault object like File, Item, FileBomRow, ItemBomRow etc. are structured in a way that all Vault properties are directly accessible via there display name, your jobs could looks something like this:

1if( $file.'File Name'.EndsWith('.ipt')) {
2        #...
3}

This job will only work on english Vault environments. When running against a german Vault Server the equivalent job would look like this:

1if( $file.'Dateiname'.EndsWith('.ipt')) {
2        #...
3}

If you need to write language neutral scripts that are running independent of the Vault language, powerVault gives you the possibility to access all the default Vault Properties with there System Name too. Following script would work on both, german and english Vault environment:

1if( $file._Name.EndsWith('.ipt')) {
2        #...
3}

Property System Names

PowerVault Objects have all the properties attached via their display names. Additionally, all the default properties are attached in the syntax “_SystemName”.

Note

Not all the properties are accessible via this approach on powerVault entities!

Custom User Defined Properties e.g. are are not part of the default Vault Properties List since they have system names that are not human readable (they contain {GUID} values).

To get a list of all the properties that are available via their system names, just run following command on the entity that you want.
For files the property list can be retrieved like this:

1$file | Format-List -Property _*
