We've set up PDM to integrate with our drawing revision tables, such that when we set the revision it populates a row in the table with the Rev, date, approver, etc.
The issue is that we set the revision on release, not when the part is put in work. This seems to be the more common practice, and make sense when viewing file history(when you go to grab a rev, you're grabbing the released version and not the working version). I'd like to have our team start using (linked) revision bubbles where applicable, but we can't really do that when the row on the rev table isn't added until the part is released.
Curious if anyone has figured out a way around this. We previously haven't used revision bubbles but I like the idea and some suppliers have requested them so they can see how parts have been changed.
