  1. Press F7 to open the Domain Explorer and then expand the hierarchy to the loop level in the Loops folder.

  2. Select and right-click one or more loops, and select Actions > Loop Drawing List.

  3. On the Loop Drawing List dialog, select Revisions.

  4. On the Revisions dialog, select one of the revision numbering methods (use P0, P1, P2... for preliminary revisions or 0, 1, 2 / A, B, C and so forth for normal serial revisions).

    • When you first select a revision numbering method, several options are available to you, including preliminary revisions (designated by P0, P1, P2…). After you select one of the other revision methods, you can no longer return to the preliminary revision method and this option becomes disabled.

    • When working with revisions in an integrated environment, the revision numbering methods are not available for selection.

  5. Select New to add new revision data or update the existing data as required.

    • Smart Instrumentation automatically adds a new line with the next logical character and date each time you select New after you select the initial method.

    • If you are working in an integrated environment in a module that supports publishing and retrieving of documents, selecting New opens the Revise dialog for the integrated environment instead of the Smart Instrumentation Revisions dialog.

  6. Add or edit the revision data in the appropriate data fields.

  • The By column contains the current user initials by default, if previously defined by the System Administrator. You can edit this value as you require.

  • You can delete obsolete revisions by selecting Delete.

  • You can also maintain revisions in batch mode.

  • Each revision is represented by a numbered macro and the revisions are displayed in the order of the macro numbering, beginning with the first revision (ascending order) or the last revision (descending order). If the total number of revisions is greater than the number of lines available for display in the drawing and you want to see the latest revisions, you should set your preferences to display the revisions in descending order so that the latest revision is displayed first.
