Revising documents - HxGN SDx - Update 61 - Help - Hexagon

You can edit an existing document and create revisions of the document with major and minor revision value sets. The revision value depends on the selected revision scheme. When revising a document, you can change the major and minor revision values on the document.

A tool can revise documents without sharing them only if the tool's SmartPlant adapter indicates that the tool supports SDx revisions.

You can revise your document in SDx and the revised values are saved to the tool database without having to share the document.

The first revision creates a Facility Data Warehouse (FDW) document master. Each FDW document has a mandatory relationship to SPFPrimaryClassification. Complete the mapping between common schema and SDx schema to identify this classification.

You can revise a document using any of the previous revisions available from the last shared revision.

For example, if you revise a new document using the revision scheme RevAlpha (A, B, C, D…) and revision C, then SDx reserves revision number C for the document. If you are revising the same document with RevAlpha, you can use any of the previous revision numbers, such as A or B. But, if you share the document to SDx with revision number C, you can only use revision numbers D and above. The following table contains the available revision numbers based on the document revision state in SDx:

If you are revising a document for the first time, ensure that your administrator has completed the prerequisites for managing a document. For more information, see Prerequisites to managing a document.

You can revise a document both at the plant level and the project level. For more information, see Revising a document.
