Creating a Calculated Column using Existing Document Properties

Copper Contributor

Hi Folks!

 

I am trying to implement a standard naming convention for our documents by using existing document properties.

Basically, I would like to create a new (Calculated) Column called DNS using the following formula:

 

=[Field1] & " - " & [Field2] & " - " & [Field 3]

 

Field1 is the Project_ID (Managed Metadata] inherited from the folder
Field2 is the File_Number column (Managed Metadata] inherited from the folder
Field3 is the Name column (document name) entered by the user

Here are my issues:

   1. None of the Managed Metadata fields/columns are available in the column list

   2. The Name column which I assume is the standard column for all content type is not displayed as well....

 

Is there a way around these problems?

 

Any help/feedback would be greatly appreciated and would make its way to Santa's favorite list.... :)

 

Thank you in advance and regards,

 

Gilles
