New Document Version Dialog

Used to create a new version of a document.

SettingDescription
Folder Displays the name and description of the document’s parent folder.
Document Displays the name and description of the current active version, plus the current active version’s label and sequence number. The Version field in the Document section is editable. You can either leave the label as is, or you can change it as necessary before it becomes a non-active version. You can enter up to 32 characters in this field. Note that you will not be able to edit the label for this version once it becomes a non-active version.
New version The Version field in the New version section is where you set the label for the new active version. You can either enter your own custom label (up to 32 characters), or you can leave this field empty and let ProjectWise automatically assign the next available alpha (default) or numeric version identifier for you (it will be assigned when you click OK or Change).
Comments Used to add comments when creating the new version.
Note: Whether or not comments are optional or required (or possible at all) when creating a new version is controlled by the user settings Audit Trail > Comments > Allow for version change and Audit Trail > Comments > Require where allowed. When just the first audit trail setting is on, comments are optional, and when both audit trail settings are on, comments are required. When Audit Trail > Comments > Allow for version change is off, the Comments tab does not display at all.
