View P&ID Drawing Data

The P&ID Data Grid can display data either from the current drawing only, or from all project drawings.

To view details of assigned items, for example, items on a project drawing, select the Assigned node. If only data from the current drawings is to be displayed, select the Current Drawing Data option from the Drawing Selection field list. If data from all project drawings is to be displayed, select the Project Data option.

To view details of unassigned items, for example, items which were created in P&ID Reports and on not yet assigned to a project drawing, select the Unassigned node.

To view details of all items in a category of item, for example, all instruments, select the appropriate node under the AVEVA P&ID Database node in the left-hand window.

To view details of a single item, expand the item category node and select the item in question from the list of items under that node.

Details of the selected item or items are then displayed in the grid in the right-hand window.

Facilities are provided to assign a selected unassigned item to the current drawing. Refer to Assign Unassigned Items to a Drawing.

Located under the Unassigned node, the Unassigned Page Connectors node is used to view lists of sheet connectors which have no source or destination drawing sheet defined for them. These nodes can be used to assign source or destination sheets to unassigned connectors. Refer to Assign Sources/Destinations to Page Connectors.
