So after a couple months of preperation and fixing compatibility issues, we are finally live with PDM. Our first issue has to do with major/minor revisions and the where used tab. Logically, to me at least, the point of a minor revision is to change info on a file without the need to update all the assemblies it is contained in, since the part itself has not actually changed. However, the where used tab shows that it is not used anywhere, until you change the version you are searching to the original. The contains tab shows the latest version though. So in order to keep the where used reference for each version, I would have to update each assembly it is used in. This seems extremely counter productive. Any comments/advice?
