Update 3d model reference in drafting

Update 3d model reference in drafting

(OP)
What is the correct process for updating the referenced model in a drawing? I am under the understanding that there is some way of doing that in Catia, just not sure where and how. I have been using a model to create a 2d annotated drawing but the customer has given us a new model of the same part with certain things updated/removed. So how do I re-link the new model to the drawing that I have created so that these changes are incorporated into the drawing?

Edit-> Links
Will bring up Links to Document Menu/Editor
Select the view in the Menu, then the Replace button, you can then select the update model.
Note that you can multi-select the views.
