Definition

This indicator shows that the user can assign undefined revision levels.

Use

You can control revision level assignment as follows:

  • Set this indicator if you want the user to be able to assign revision levels that are not supprted in the sequence for materials or documents.
    If the user assigns a new revision level, the next available value in the work step "Define sequence for <object type>" is assigned. This value can be overwritten by an undefined revision level.
  • Do not set this indicator if you want the system to assign the revision level automatically
    The system assigns the next available revision level in the predefined sequence.
    You see a dialog box telling you which revision level was assigned.

Procedure

Examples

Dependencies

If external revision level assignment is allowed, you can define whether the revision level from the defined sequence has to be higher than the previous revision level assigned (Indicator: external revision level must be higher).
