Although the BIM number for a document can be checked and changed on the Viewpoint system prior to being uploaded.
If a document was flagged as having an incorrect number and then was amended using the option on Viewpoint, at QA check this document would not pass as it would contain a different number to what it has been uploaded as, therefore would be rejected anyway.
There ought to be a way of the Viewpoint system flagging this to the uploader, still letting them choose the correct numbering, but allowing them to amend the document number also prior to it uploading.

Hi Andrew
If the correct BIM numbering for documents is to be used, it should show on the document.
My feeling is there is going to be a lot of rejected drawings initially.
It’s a shame something cannot be added within the upload area.
Regards,
Jo

Hi Jo,
In this case I don't think we can add logic to the system to handle this, as there will be scenarios where an amendment to the document is correct and it should proceed, and other customers may have a different workflow/QA process. Sometimes you just can't beat a human checkpoint!
Thanks,
Andrew
