Assign Unassigned Items to a Drawing

The nodes under the Unassigned node of the AVEVA P&ID Database node is used to view items in the project database that have not been added to a project drawing. Such items are created in AVEVA P&ID Reports (refer to AVEVA P&ID Reports documentation for details) or imported from AVEVA P&ID Reports. They may be added to a drawing by the facilities provided by the P&ID Data Grid.
