hi, meenakashi,

Here is some giude lines for revisions

The revision level indicates a released processing status of a document. Later on, you can change documents that have a revision level with reference to either the change number or the revision level.

The following sequence of revision levels has been defined for documents:

R1, R2,...R20

The following document is being processed:

Document KON-01, document type DRW, part document 000

Versions to which consecutive revision levels are assigned:

Version 01 Revision level R1

Version 03 Revision level R2

Version 06 Revision level R3

The next version that is released with reference to a change number is assigned revision level R4.

Revision level assignment is automatic for documents when a version is released with reference to a change number for the first time. You receive a default value according to the predefined number sequence (Customizing).

The revision level uniquely identifies a processing status of a document. You can only process a document version with reference to one change number, so you can only have one revision level per version.

u2022Once you have entered a change number for a document info record and saved the document, you can no longer change the number.

If you want to process the document at a later date with reference to a different change number, you must create a new version.

this will solve ur debt

Hi Meenakshi,

You can use revision levels along with Engineering Change Management

You can assign Revision level to corresponding version of documents.

Normally if you assign a change number to document and release that document then automatically revision level will be assigned to that DIR while saving the DIR

Thanks and regards

Hi Meenakshi

When only minor changes are done to the document then the versioning functionality can be used.

But if the document is already released for production, in such kind of scenario revision can be used.

Revisions to a document/drawing/bom are done through engineering change management.
