Revising a Specification

Users with Revise access for specifications can revise a CAD model, part specification, CAD drawing, or drawing print.

Before you begin: To revise a specification:
  • You must have either the Author or Leader role for the specification. (App-specific role: Design Engineer, Senior Design Engineer, Component Engineer, Product Obsolescence Manager, Part Family Coordinator).
  • You must either have created, now own the specification, or be assigned to the same collaborative space in which the specification resides.
Note: If you revise a production part and its specification files, you must manually connect the new revision of the specification files to the new revision of the part.
