Build a Revision Schedule from the Top Down or Bottom Up

Place column headings and revision rows at the top or bottom of the schedule.

Revision schedules can display information in various ways. Some design firms use a top-down approach, with column headings and revision rows starting at the top of the schedule. Other design firms use a bottom-up approach, with column headings and revision rows starting at the bottom of the schedule. In either case, the revision schedule sorts the rows using the settings specified on the Sorting/Grouping tab of the Revision Properties dialog.

To change the way that revision schedules display information

1. Open the title block for editing.
2. In the Project Browser, under Views (all)Schedules, click Revision Schedule.
