Saving results and measured points

[[Br...]]

I am trying to automatically rename and save the custom and compact printouts as .pdf files, as well as the .zmp inspection points to a server location that is separate from the inspection directory. I am using the report_end_pcm.txt file, and I have tried multiple different approaches without getting the results I am looking for. Does anyone have a good starting point for accomplishing this?

Here is the current status of my code:

// 1st ouput - Custom Printout
defineProtocol("#name",""\\NOS\Data\Gear_Lab_Zeiss_Output\"+getRecordHead("u_NewVariable6")+"\"+getRecordHead("planid")+"\Custom-"+getRecordHead("order")+"-Part_"+getRecordHead("partnbinc")+"-"+getRecordHead("date")+"-"+getRecordHead("time")+".pdf"")
defineProtocol("#type","presentationProtocol")
defineProtocol("#medium","pdf")
defineProtocol("#elements","allCF")
defineProtocol("#order","likeList")
// 2nd output - Compact Printout
defineProtocol("#name",""\\NOS\Data\Gear_Lab_Zeiss_Output\"+getRecordHead("u_NewVariable6")+"\"+getRecordHead("planid")+"\Compact-"+getRecordHead("order")+"-Part_"+getRecordHead("partnbinc")+"-"+getRecordHead("date")+"-"+getRecordHead("time")+".pdf"")
defineProtocol("#order","likelist")
defineProtocol("#type","compactProtocol")
defineProtocol("#medium","pdf")
defineProtocol("#elements","allCF")
// 3rdnd output - Measurement Points
defineProtocol("#name","\\NOS\Data\Gear_Lab_Zeiss_Output\"+getRecordHead("u_NewVariable6")+"\"+getRecordHead("planid")+"\Points-"+getRecordHead("order")+"-Part_"+getRecordHead("partnbinc")+"-"+getRecordHead("date")+"-"+getRecordHead("time")+".zmp"")
defineProtocol("#type","measPointsLE")

This is my first time attempting output with PCM, so any help is appreciated.

All this could be possible without PCM - just edit default names for plan.

I have done that before, but my understanding is it works for programs currently opened. I have hundreds of programs created that do not have that activated, and I am trying to avoid modifying 500+ programs, and then have to potentially update all of them again in the future if file paths change. I like the PCM approach because I am hoping to have a single script that can be updated when needed if it is possible.

Just use "Name for output files"

Resources
...Name for output files
......for this measurement plan
or
......for all measurement plans

I send all my table files, pdf reports and measuring points data to a network.
See attached text file for strings I use.
Feel free to use them.
This does require your Protocol Header to be setup for the parameters used.

Calypso - Report header data.txt - Contains the headers used for the Report header.
Output File text strings.txt - Contains PCM strings for file output (to a server in my examples).
