With Smart P&ID, you can easily perform the tasks required to create a detailed plant model. You can place components such as equipment, piping, and instrumentation from Catalog Explorer or the stockpile into graphical representations of your plant model in the drawing. Smart P&ID provides multiple views of a central, unified data structure that represents the plant model. The plant model is the computer representation of the conceptual design in its entirety, including all plant components and their relationships. By manipulating model views, you can organize the information within the plant model to better understand and maintain the data. A view is a visual presentation of the data that composes the plant model. A view can be a schematic drawing, a table, or a report.

One key feature of Smart P&ID is using catalogs to create instances of components within the plant model. The standard modeling environment lets you place items from the catalog into the appropriate model views. If you repeatedly place particular groups of items, you can save the group of items as an assembly. Assemblies appear as symbols in the Catalog Explorer List view so you can place them exactly as you place other symbols in your List.

In the Properties window, you can add values for various properties of each item after you place it in your drawing. You can also annotate your drawing with labels as you design the drawing.

As you work on your drawing, you can monitor any inconsistencies in your design by reviewing the inconsistency indicators. These indicators appear in your drawing as soon as an inconsistency occurs in the design. You can resolve inconsistencies using solutions from the Consistency Check dialog.

Additionally, you can generate reports to help you keep track of information in the drawing. For example, after you finish the drawing, you can generate order lists for the components in the drawing. You can print the drawing, if necessary.
