To make any design changes to the model, you must first synchronize the standalone As-Built design data to SDx. You begin by using the Integration > Register with SDx Command to authenticate and then register the As-Built model with SDx. Registering a model with SDx enables you to connect to the integrated environment so that you can share data between Smart 3D and SDx. Part of the registration process includes exporting material definitions to SDx. Material definitions are attributions for the graphics and styles in the model.
After you complete registration, the next step is to configure and start the Intergraph Smart 3D Share Service for the As-Built model. The Intergraph Smart 3D Share Service monitors the model database for changes, such as new or modified objects. In the context of the initial synchronization of model data to SDx, configuring the service for the As-Built model sets up a continuous stream of Smart Interop Object data between the model and SDx. During the handover process, you can use the SDx Synchronization Status Monitor to monitor the status of the synchronize to SDx operation for completeness and for errors. The utility also provides a reporting feature so that you can view the results of the operation. After the As-Built (Handover) design data is shared to SDx, you must ensure that all errors and warnings that occurred during the process are resolved. See Appendix: Share/Synchronize Error and Warning Conditions for descriptions and recommend recovery steps for common error and warning conditions.
