Selection checkbox

The checkboxes next to each row in the schedule grid enable you to select items for publishing and perform 'Actions'. Choose your desired options and click the 'Actions' button.


When no rows are selected, the platform will perform the action or publish the whole schedule.

Parked content is shown 'greyed out' and scored through in the grid.

To enable 'parked' content to be shown in the grid, ensure the 'Show parked clauses'/ 'Show parked articles' checkbox is ticked. This setting is accessed from the 3-dot menu button located above the grid.

Suggestion: Some specifiers use this field to add additional static information, such as design responsibility and work package number.

Suffix

Suggestion: Use this field for unique references such as drawing references or T-sheet codes.


When articles/ clauses are duplicated, the next reference in the sequence is inserted automatically. 


For example, duplicating an article/ clause with a suffix containing ‘Type A’ will result in the new one having the suffix ‘Type B’.
