Creating a New Drawing or Submittal
Create a new drawing or submittal when you need to track an external
file or physical item in a workspace. These documents can then be circulated
for review and feedback, either alone or as part of a package.
You can create new drawings or submittals using
either of the following methods:
- Using
the Drawings or Submittals Creation Wizard. This method enables
you to create up to 500 documents at a time, adding the most important
information and including any necessary file attachments. For more information
on using this method, see "Drawings/Submittals
Creation Wizard".
- Manually
through the Drawings or Submittals register. This method creates
a single document to which you can manually add all necessary information
and file attachments.
Your security
role must have permission to create the appropriate document type.
For more information, see "About
Security Permissions".
To
manually create a new drawing or submittal
-
for the document that you are creating.
- Click New
to create a new document using the default template.
-
Complete the following
required information:
- Name:Type a string of characters that collectively identifies all revisions
of a particular drawing or submittal. For example, Document X has three
revisions. You assign each revision the name "DOCX" to indicate
that they belong together. The name must be unique within the workspace.
Proliance does not allow more than one revision to have the same combination
of name, revision number, and system revision number.
Note: Changing the name will update all the other revisions with
the same name to the new name.
- Revision
Number:Similar to the system revision number, except that you can use your
own numbering system. Proliance will attempt to increment the Revision
Number intelligently when new revisions are created.
-
If you are performing
a workflow
action on the document, complete the information required for this
action. For more information, see "Drawings/Submittals
Workflow Actions" for a list of preconditions for a specific
action.
-
Complete any other necessary
information for the document. Headings marked with an asterisk (*) or
highlighted fields are required. For more information, see "About
Required Fields".
- Optionally create
a review process for the document.
- Click Save.
