Publish these separate smaller models with a specific workflow configured to represent a composite model. See your administrator to have a composite model workflow established for you. The composite model workflow is the AutoLoadPublishWithMerge workflow. This workflow has MergePublishedFile process step configured.

This workflow creates the published 3D document, loads the 3D data in SmartPlant Foundation, then merges these object sets into a new composite document that represents the entire 3D model. The name of the composite document created is the same as the name of the workflow, for example, AutoLoadPublishWithMerge, to which the published 3D model is submitted. To publish to different 3D model composite documents, you can copy the AutoLoadPublishWithMerge workflow to a different document name.

If you have existing published 3D models in SmartPlant Foundation and want to merge these into one representative model document, you can create a 3D composite document manually, and then relate the published models to the document.

Any workflow can be configured to include the MergePublishedFile process step. It allows you to use any workflow to consolidate 3D models. However, the name of the workflow will be used as the name of the 3D model composite document. Contact your SmartPlant Foundation system administrator to configure your workflows. For more information on configuring workflows, see How to Configure the Workflow Model.
