Displaying conflicts

Conflicts are basically identified individually for each item number. Under the conflict entry you can find entries for all the components used in the model – these are known as error log entries. The colors and symbols immediately give you information on the nature of the conflict.

Conflict symbols

The conflict summary differentiates between two key types of conflict, which are also displayed in different colors:

Serious conflicts are identified with red symbols and mean that the document will be faulty following updating. To deal with these first and foremost manual intervention is necessary.

Updating conflicts are identified with gray symbols and mean that the document is currently faulty, but will be corrected following updating.

The individual error log entries for each conflict distinguish between the subordinate components (1) and the components that create the document (2).

Note: All data naturally relate only to the reconciliation with the 3D-model and the item number shown in the conflict.

Description of conflict

Special significance is given to the display of creation dates in the conflict overview. Here you have detailed information on the nature of the conflict and possible solutions.

In particular comparison of item numbers and group structures on creation of the document with the current status of the model are of major assistance when correcting errors.

Displaying the relevant components

Select a conflict or error log entry from the list and then select Mark components from the pop-up menu to mark the components in the model. In this way you can rapidly find the individual component or the entire conflict group visually and deal with the problem.
