Creating a Revision

You can create a revision of an object to capture a particular derivation during its lifecycle.

Before you begin:

Select one or several objects, and click New Revision . Depending on the app, this command might be available from the action bar, a context menu, or from the context menu of the Revision Explorer.

The New Revision dialog box appears. If you selected several objects, this dialog box displays the list of selected objects with their type, revision ID, and maturity state.

Important: Select all connected objects together to duplicate the connections and move them to the new objects. Otherwise, the new objects will remain connected to the initial object.

  1. Optional: In the Revision field, enter the revision ID to be assigned to the new revision.

    If you leave it blank, a default value is automatically computed.

    Note: This field cannot be edited for all object types.

  2. Optional: Enter a comment for the new revision in the Revision Comment box.
  3. Optional: If you selected an object that supports intermediate revisions, to create the revision before the object's revision you selected, select the Insert before ... option.

    Important: This option is only available for some object types, like model versions and their subtypes.

  4. Click Revise.
