-
In Drawing Manager, open the Project Status dialog box.
-
Click the Complete Project button.
This command performs several tests, including verifying all the drawings for check in. If the project passes all the tests, the project status is set to Completed. If the project fails to pass one of the tests, the project remains in the Active state and you have more work to do before completing the project.
-
Before a project can be completed, all the drawings that exist in the project must be checked out (not just fetched). Checking out a drawing to a project means that this project is the only one that can check it back into the plant.
-
All drawings must be up-to-date with the version in the Plant. If another project has checked in changes to one of the project drawings since it was fetched from the Plant, then the project will fail to complete. In this case, you must refresh the affected drawings before the project can be completed. This ensures that overlapping projects with shared drawings do not destroy each other's changes. If projects do not share any drawings, this is not an issue.
The Verify for Check In command in Drawing Manager allows you to perform the same tests on individual drawings
that are done by the Complete Project process on all drawings. This allows you to check if individual drawings are ready
for check in as work on them is completed.
