After the project administrator creates a new project and registers it, you can begin making modifications and generating project drawings.
When the project team determines that the project is ready to complete, the project leader is notified to Check Consistency, which appears in the SmartPlant Foundation To Do List. The following steps guide you through the actions required in order to move a project through the stages of Complete, Merge with As-Built, and Merge with SmartPlant.
There are two kinds of statuses. One is the Active/Complete/Merged/Canceled status on the project as it exists. The other is the Working/Approved status for each object in the project. In this release of the software, the status of each project object must stay set to Working. Setting the status to Approved makes the project object read-only.
