RevisionSync

Thank you for choosing RevisionSync!

RevisionSync is a SOLIDWORKS PDM task add-in that sync revisions between your drawings and documents.

Features

• Two Sync Directions:

  • From Drawing to Document (SyncDrawingToDocument):
    Most common. Use this when the drawing is outdated. This will increment the document's revision.
  • From Document to Drawing (SyncDocumentToDrawing):
    Use this when the document is outdated. This will increment the drawing's revision.

• Sync both the PDM Revision and the PDM Revision Variable between drawings and documents.

• Sync datacard values from the document to the drawing for selected variables.

• Trigger revision or card sync as a task, typically during a workflow transition.

• Prevent file transitions if revisions do not match (acts as a gatekeeper).
