Revision Workflow

Revision tracking is the process of recording changes made to a building model after sheets have been issued. In Revit, you display and track revisions using revision clouds, tags, and schedules.

    Typically you manage the revision process as follows:

  1. Enter information about the revision in the Sheet Issues/Revisions dialog.

    See Entering Revision Information.

  2. Update the Revit project to implement the change.
  3. In one or more project views, draw revision clouds to indicate the areas that changed.

    See Adding a Revision Cloud.

  4. Assign a revision to each cloud.

    See Assigning a Revision to a Revision Cloud.

  5. Tag the revision clouds to identify the assigned revisions.

    See Tagging a Revision Cloud.

  6. Check sheets to make sure that the revision schedules show the desired information.

    See Specifying the Revisions to Include in a Revision Schedule.

  7. Issue the revisions.

    See Issuing a Revision.
