Click Workshare > Synchronize Reference Data from Copy.
-
On the Synchronize Reference Data from Copy dialog box, click each Browse button and specify the paths to the copies of the reference data files.
You must have a live network connection to these files if they are not on your local computer.
-
Specify a path for every file listed on this dialog box.
-
Until every path is specified, the OK command is not available.
-
The path you specify for the rules library is also used to determine the path for the PlantConfig.xml file.

-
The Synchronize Reference Data dialog box opens and displays the progress of the synchronization operation.
-
You can click View Log if you want to read notes on the synchronization operation.
-
Exit and then re-open Drawing Manager. You can now publish or get latest version of drawings.
-
If a satellite does not synchronize reference data, the satellite cannot publish or get the latest version of a drawing.
-
If you are using a Workshare environment in the SmartPlant P&ID Modeler and you are at a satellite site, you should not store custom layouts for the Engineering Data Editor or Plant Filters because when you synchronize reference data, you lose that information.
-
You can click Schedule to defer this task to a later time or schedule it on a regular interval. When the Schedule Task Wizard opens, follow directions in the wizard to complete the scheduling of this synchronizing operation.
