Files & Floor Plans

Files & Floor Plans

Two tabs hold a project's document and site record: Files for documents, and Floor Plan for zones drawn on a site plan.

Files

The Files tab is the project's document vault — drawings, permits, photos, signed contracts and deliverables — organized in folders.

  • Upload by drag-and-drop, and create folders with New Folder.
  • Search files, and sort by name, date modified or size.
  • Cut, Copy and Paste files between folders, Move to... a chosen folder, Rename, Download, Copy link or Delete. Folders can be moved but not copied.
  • Deleting a folder keeps the files inside it — they move to the top level.

Revisions & releases

A file's Revisions & releases menu releases it to another record — a Work order, Build, Item, BOM, Task, Milestone, Contract or Purchase order — as a revision of a named drawing. That keeps "which revision did we build to?" answerable long after the job ships.

Each release has a Purpose:

PurposeMeaning
ReferenceInformational.
DeliverableA contractual deliverable.
Supporting documentBackup or evidence.
Signed copyThe executed copy.
AttachmentA file sent along with a communication.
  • A release names the Drawing number and Drawing revision. Leave them out and they're read from the file name — SKID-GA_RevB.pdf becomes drawing SKID-GA, revision B.
  • Several files — a PDF, a DXF and a STEP model — can make up one revision, and stay current together.
  • Releasing a newer revision of the same drawing to the same record supersedes the old one, and Show superseded brings earlier revisions back into view.
  • A release marked as released is locked: supersede it with a new revision rather than unlinking it.
  • Released to an Item with a revision, the drawing also moves the item to that revision, and the result tells you if it couldn't.

Floor Plan

The Floor Plan tab (for construction and real estate companies) turns a site plan into a work map. Upload Floor Plan Image, then draw zones on it with Draw Rectangle or Draw Polygon — rooms, work areas or systems.

Each zone has a Zone Name, a Zone Code, a Zone Type, notes, an opacity, and a Status — Not Started, In Progress, Completed or On Hold.

  • Link Tasks to a zone to connect the schedule to the physical site — see which tasks belong to which area, and each zone's task progress.
  • Select & Move repositions a zone; Pan, Zoom In, Fit to Screen and Reset View move around the plan, and Expand gives it the full screen.
  • The Summary panel rolls up total zones, completion rate and task counts.
  • Download as Image saves the marked-up plan.

Deleting a zone also removes its task links.
