Custom Solutions Spotlight: Setting Up Your Workspace

Greg Houston

Our Relativity and custom development teams often provide custom solutions to Relativity customers who want to do more—or achieve unique workflows—with the software. Once these applications are built, they’re often posted for everyone in the Relativity community to use.

You can view and download the most popular solutions in the new Advice Hub section of the Relativity Customer Portal. Here’s a quick preview of what you’ll find to make setting up your workspace a more painless, more efficient process:

Build Folders and Move Documents. This solution provides the ability to move documents to a folder path specified in a text field. Several documents can be moved to multiple folders with a single execution.

Collect Folder Path Data. This report displays the total file counts and sizes grouped by folders.

Delete Empty Case Folders. This script deletes any empty folders in a workspace, provided that they do not form part of a folder path that includes documents in a lower leaf.

File Validation Agent. This custom agent validates that document files—natives, TIFFs, production images, full text, and so on—actually exist in a workspace. The agent reads the file path location for each file in the workspace and identifies whether or not it exists.

Set Native Timezone Offset With DST. This solution takes a date field on each document and calculates if the Relativity Native Timezone Offset needs to be modified to account for daylight savings time, updating the offset where necessary.

We encourage you to learn more about these custom solutions in the Advice Hub in the Customer Portal. They can help make simple, day-to-day tasks in Relativity more efficient. If you have any questions, please contact us at advice@relativity.com.
