Document Register New Layout Overview

Commnia's' document register is the central repository of project-related documents with the added feature of document revision control; assisting you with ensuring all relevant project teams are working from the most recent revision.

Document Register Layout

Commnia's document register has two layout; List view and Doc View. The list view allows you to see all the documents metadata, and Doc View will enable you to quickly switch between drawings.  

To access the different layouts, navigate to the right side of the screen and select the layout button. You can always alternate between the layouts at any time.


The selected layout will remain active until you change it











Once you click on the selected file, the preview of the drawing will show up on the right-hand side of your screen.



Editing  

You can choose to mass edit the documents which have been classified or labelled incorrectly.

Documents that have been selected in the list view will also carry over to the new layout.

The edit menu will display from which you can modify the Document Number, Revision, Revision Date, Description, Discipline, Type & Status.

Compare  

To compare two selected documents for similarities, you can initiate the process by locating to the Compare Documents button in the menu bar.


A popup window displays on the screen where you can see the selected drawings in alignment of each other for comparisons and markups. Here you will find colour coded drawings so you can easily distinguish between the documents.

Red: The first selected document 


Blue: The second selected document 


Black: Similarities between both documents  




Retains Filter Selection

If you need to switch layouts in-between viewing documents, any filters or selected documents that have been applied will be translated across both layouts, without the need to repeat the process. 

For example:
  1. We will filter the Disciplines to Architectural drawings
