Module Customization for Drawing Log

    Module customization enables you to set defaults and set up workflow routing, where applicable, for the Drawing Log business processes. There are two types of defaults:

    • Client level defaults are set in MaintenanceData MaintenanceModule Customization.
    • Project level defaults are set by selecting the Customize button within the Module.

    Available customization choices at the Project level are similar to the Client level, with a few exceptions.
