Hi. we are currently trying to implement revit into our office and i am in charge of setting up the title sheet. all was going well until i started to try and get the revision schedule to include categories we need such as, approved by, drawn by and checked by. Does anyone know how to add additional fields to the revision schedule? thanks

Unfortunately, as far as I can tell, you are restricted to the fields they give you and cannot add new ones. You could perhaps repurpose one or more existing fields. For example, we don't use the 'Issued to' field, so we use that for a 'Checked By' instead (change the Heading value in the Formatting tab to something more appropriate.

Perhaps you could combine two and change 'Issued to' to 'chk/app' and add two sets of initials when it comes time to filling them out?

Cheers,
Adam.

I am sure you can create a new family to so you can put in what fields you need. Have you read through the user guide? I have just had a quick look in the user guide for Revit Structure 2009 and it says you can add custom fields to a schedule.

You can add additional fields into "normal"schedules, but not into revision schedules. That´s my point of view (so far ;-) )! if you don´t need one of the six fields provided, just call the one you don´t need as you like...
