Master Revisions Database

You can create a master revision database for adding information of all the changes made to the building. You can copy the change information into the revision data of any document in the building. You can add the revision data as a text macro in a drawing.

You can create and edit the master revisions database with the function on the building data card. The data card of the template buildings included in the basic delivery of the program has a button Master Revisions Database, which opens the database.
