Function:
Creates a new Stamp element.
Description:
This command allows the administrator to create a Stamp to be used to mark Database (DB) sessions. The administrator can stamp sessions, either by a specific time and date, or by session number. Once the administrator has stamped DB sessions, they can use the Stamp name in commands where a date or session number can be used, such as BACKTRACK or REVERT. Stamping DB sessions makes it easier for the administrator to:
-
Make comparisons and identify changes made from session to session ‑ for example, the administrator can issue drawings on which all revisions that have been made since an earlier stamped session are highlighted.
-
Merge DB sessions.
-
Backtrack a Standard DB to a previous session.
-
Revert an extract DB to a previous session.
-
In a Global Project, Stamps must be created at the Hub.
Example:
|
NEW STAMP /Stamp_007 Creates a new Stamp named Stamp_007. NEW STLST STLSF /*PIPEDB STSESS 7 Creates a new Stamp List for each DB in the Stamp (here, PIPEDB), for session number 7. The Stamp List holds a reference to the DB and the session number. Any number of STLST elements can be created (or deleted). The default value of STSESS is the current session for the DB. |
