Hi all,

I am new to Productstream. My company are considering it for out data management needs. We are a manufacturing company using generic equipment on multiple manufacturing lines, hence we need to keep different revisions of drawings active for different manufacturing lines. Can Productstream manage this scenario?

Our drawings do not contain any xrefs or attributes, so have to be managed carefully.

I have the trial version of the software but it's not proving easy to use. The main problem is that our local reseller hasn't any experience of the product either...

For example:
LINE 1 uses ASSY316 REV 1
LINE 2 uses ASSY316 REV 3
LINES 3,4,5 & 6 uses ASSY316 REV 2

In the case of Lines 3,4,5 & 6, I don't wish to create a separate drawing for each Line.

It would appear that I have 2 options (that I'm aware of):
1) 'Assign' each Revision of ASSY316 to the appropriate Line (don't know how to do this...)
2) Create a new drawing specific to each Line, i.e. L3-ASSY316 etc. This will vastly increase our file storage needs and it seems a primitive solution to the problem.

Any help or advice would be appreciated,
Regards
K
