You can specify the default locations of input and output files on the File Locations page (Solid Edge Options dialog box). These include:
Templates
Custom units
Custom properties
Managed document locations
Log files
Some Solid Edge functions produce log files that contain errors or warnings. Each log file uses a naming convention of the format Description_<timestamp>.log.
Example:
AddToTeamcenter_20080514131232.log
The timestamp is a 14 digit unique identifier using the format YYYYMMDDHHmmss where:
YYYY is the year. In the example, 2008.
MM is the month. In the example, 05 is May.
DD is the day. In the example, 14 is the 14th.
HH is the hour using a 24-hour clock beginning at midnight which is 00 through 23, which is 11:00 p.m. In the example, 13 is 1:00 p.m.
mm is the minute. In the example, 12 is 12 minutes past the hour.
ss is the seconds. In the example, 32 is 32 seconds past the minute.
Solid Edge files that are generated as output of one process share the same timestamp, so it is easy to identify which output file is related to another.
