Thanks. I doesn't look possible to simply change the revison number once created. A new one has to be created instead.

The reason for the question, we are importing thousands of parts along with their methods. Our current system has no awareness of the true revision of the method so we are importing "TBD" as the revision. Once manufacturing needs to update a method, our though was they can update "TBD" to the actual revision number. I know I can create a new revision, copy in the details of the TBD revision, but that does take time. Just looking for a quicker / easier way for production to update the value.

I realize this a strange question, but is it possible in 9.05 to change the revision of a method versus having to create a new revision and then copying in the method? The reason for the question, we are importing thousands of parts along with their methods. Our current system has no awareness of the true revision of the method so we are importing "TBD" as the revision. Once manufacturing needs to update a method, our though was they can update "TBD" to the actual revision number. I know I can create a new revision, copy in the details of the TBD revision, but that does take time. Just looking for a quicker / easier way for production to update the value.

Thanks,

I used "NEW" instead of "TBD".
Mfg uses those revisions or makes new ones.
But I'm not sure my conditions were exactly the same as yours.
