Revision table embedded in Sheet file?
Revision table embedded in Sheet file?
(OP)
Is it possible to embed or create a functioning revision table in the Sheet document? That way, when I have multiple sheets for my assembly, I just have to update the one revision table and the rest of the sheets are updated automatically.
It’s very time consuming having to make a revision change then go to each sheet and updating each revision table to reflect the change.
I've tied to copy the revision table from the sheet to the "edit sheet format" area, but with no success. I could try drawing my own revision table, but I have no idea what the codes are for each column.

Do you really need to have a complete revision table on every sheet? Why not have a common title block on all sheets but just include the revision table on the first sheet?
Create a different sheet format for use on the second and subsequent sheets which does not have the revision table.

Thus when we send the assembly weldment to the vender to be cut and welded, there are no confusions as to what revisions and/or pages they should be working to.
I just wish SW would allow me to insert the revision table in behind the sheet format (like the title block).

Since we arn't that big (and don't generate stacks of drawings for one assembly) we replicate the revision table to each sheet. I just wish sw would let me input the default rev table on the same layer as the title block.
