Import Revisions into the Revision Table - Intergraph Smart Instrumentation - Help

Use this procedure to import revisions to any document in Smart Instrumentation.

The following are prerequisites before importing revisions into the Revisions table:

• Make sure that the documents for which you want to import revisions already exist in Smart Instrumentation.

• Make sure that the document numbers are defined both in the import source and in the target documents.

1. On the Link Definitions dialog, create an import link as follows:

1. In the Link box, type a unique link name.

2. Under Import method, select Single table.

3. Under Name of module or table, select REVISION.

4. Complete the import link creation.

1. On the Link Properties dialog, define the import link properties as you require.

2. In the Import Link window, open the import link.

3. In the Target pane, define the import mapping as follows:

1. Select the DWG NAME/DWG ID field, and then, from the Source pane, drag the column containing the source document numbers.

2. Select the REV NO field, and then, from the Source pane, drag the column containing the source revision numbers.

1. If needed, complete the import mapping by dragging the appropriate column names from the Source pane or by entering strings or values in the fields in the Target pane.

   You cannot import data into the REV UDF fields. These fields are custom fields that you can add as additional revision fields when customizing title blocks in InfoMaker. You can import revision values to any non-custom fields (other than REV UDF). The display names of these fields are shown on the Revisions dialog in Smart Instrumentation.

2. Import the data.
