Compile a design revision

Create a new Material Take Off (MTO) or part list revision for a specific drawing discipline and project combination. When you compile a new revision, the system records a snapshot of the quantities for both approved and unapproved MTO or part list requirements. Updates made to the MTO or part list items at a later stage in the project do not affect the material quantities in the compiled revisions. When you use the Compile New functionality, a new material summary is created for the drawing discipline in the s21026 Material Summaries screen. You cannot delete a compiled revision.

1. Navigate to the s21027 Discipline MTO/Part List Revisions screen.

2. In the Current Project control block, perform the following:

   1. From the Discipline dropdown, select the ID of the required drawing discipline.

   2. From the Project dropdown, select the ID of the required project.

3. To refresh the screen, select the F5 key.

4. On the s21027 menu, in the Actions group, select Compile New.

   The d0285 Compile New Revision dialog appears.

5. In the New Revision field, enter the revision number.

6. Select Compile Revision.

   The Job Started pop-up window appears. A job is triggered in the background to compile the revision.

   When the Job Completed pop-up window appears, a design revision is compiled and added to the Design Revisions grid.

   In the s21026 Material Summaries screen, a new material summary is created with the value in the Purpose field as Discipline MTO/Part List Revision.
