Document Status

Indicates the availability of the document.

Available

Shows that any author can access the selected document. An author can change the status of the document to one of the following: In Work, In Review, Released, Baselined, or Obsolete. You can use this option to change the document's status. If the active document is not part of a set, you can change the status of the document from Available to any other state.

In Work

Shows that someone is currently working on the selected document. The name of the person working on the document displays next to the document name in the View box.  You cannot change the status of this document unless you are the person working on the document or a coordinator.  If the active document is not part of a document set, you can change the status from In Work to any other state if you are the person who set the document's status originally.  Other users will be able to check out the document, but it will be opened read-only in QY CAD.

In Review

Shows that the document is being reviewed by another user. Any user can edit the document. The status can be changed from In Review to any other status.

Released

Shows that the selected document has been approved. Once released, the document is read-only for everyone except a Coordinator. A Coordinator can open a released document in a managed library with read-write access. Although other users cannot change this document, they can create a revision of this document. The new document will have its own life-cycle. You can change the document to Baselined so that no one can make edits to the document.

Baselined

Shows that the selected document is frozen from further edits.  Once baselined, the document is read-only. Although you cannot change this document, you can use the Save As command in QY CAD or the Set Action to Revise command in Design Manager to create a new revision of the document. The new revision will have its own life cycle. If the document is baselined and resides in a managed folder, then all users, including Coordinators, can open the document as read-only.

Obsolete

Shows the document is no longer the latest revision, but is still available for viewing.  A Coordinator can make changes to the document but other users are not allowed to make changes.

Hardware Part

Specifies whether the part is a hardware part.  When set to Yes, if the cutting plane line in a section view in the Draft environment intersects the part, the part will not be cut.

Document Number

Displays the document number. The list of available document numbers is stored in the text file, propseed.txt. You can edit this file to add more document numbers to the default list.

Revision

Displays the revision number of the document.

Project Name

Displays the name of the project for which the document is being created. The list of available project names is stored in the text file, propseed.txt. You can edit this file to add more project names to the default list.
