The following procedure explains how to merge all the project items into As-Built.

Merging is the final stage of a project cycle.  After you have edited items in your project, you can merge those items into As-Built.  The merge operation completely overwrites existing data in As-Built with data from the project. For this reason, once you have committed to merge data, the changes are irreversible.

Note that in order to run a full merge, the status of the project must be set to Completed. For details, see Complete a Project.

  1. In an As-Built plant, click Window > New > Project Management.

  2. Select the required project whose status has been set to Completed.  For details, see Select a Project.

  3. On the Project Management toolbar, click PPM All Outputs Graphic.

  4. On the Project Status dialog box, click Merge Project.

  5. Click Close.

  • The software merges all the completed items into As-Built, including the child items.

  • The status of all the child items in the project must be Completed. If the status of some of the child items is not set to Completed, full merge is not possible.

  • When merging a composite drawing, all the plant items that are associated with graphical elements on the drawing will be merged automatically on condition that they and their parent items have been completed or merged. If the status of at least one of the items or one of the parent items is not completed or merged, the software will not allow you to merge the composite drawing.

  • Once a project has been merged, the software sets the status of the project and the status of all the items in the project to Merged. No further activities are possible in this project as all the items in the project are locked and cannot be edited. If you want to edit some of the items in a merged project, you must first reactivate the project. After reactivating a project, all the items in that project become scoped and you will have to claim the items that you want to edit.
