Revision management in Allplan 2008

Postby Tips&Tricks » 02 Jun Mon, 2008 3:22 pm

Revision management is very important in a CAD environment.
Of course you can simply mention the revision on the stamp / header space manually, but there are also other possibilities.
One of these possibilities is using the properties that every drawing has.

In the plan manager you ask for the corresponding properties by clicking the right mouse button. (image 1)

On the third tab you register the creation date, the date of approval and all intervening modification moments.
For every modification moment - or revision - you register the date, the person in charge and a short remark (or description).

Subsequently, these data can be recovered in different ways.

Within Allplan ProjectPilot you have the possibility to generate various reports.
One of these reports reproduces all registered modification information. (image 2 and image 3)

It is also possible to represent these modifications on your plans. The attributes are visualized on the drawing by means of a variable text view. In the table below you see the required attributes.

You simple create a new variable text view with the required attributes and other elements (text, lines, hatching, fillings, …). Save the whole in desk / project / private under file 8 and under a random name.
The file number is very important since Allplan only accepts captions from this file (n°eight) on the drawing level.

To show this caption, you have to use the drawing layout of the drawing frame you are going to attach this new caption to. Is the drawing frame not available by default, you define additional frames yourself through the plan layout configuration. (image 4)

Of course, this caption doesn’t have to be completely unrelated to all other drawing information.
The modification attributes can be integrated perfectly in one global caption – e.g. the stamp/header/footer itself – as you can see in the following example. (image 5)
