We are about to migrate from INTRALINK3.4 to PDMLINK 10 and one of the current bottle necks in releasing drawings is adding the checked and approved by names in our drawing borders. Our ILINK3.4 process is, once a design is complete it is printed out and then checked and approved by separate people, who sign the paper copy in the relevant box on the drawing border. Some body then opens the drawing in Pro/e, adds the names and dates to the drawing border, changes the revision to the next whole number, checks in and promotes the files to the relevant release level. I realise that the release schemes in PDMLINK (and ILINK3.4 if we had them setup) will handle the up-issuing and promotion, but is there a way to update the drawing border with the correct names and dates of the checker and approver?
I will be most interested in peoples thoughts and solutions.
Thanks in advance
