Drawing Statuses
On the Drawing Status page, the statuses that a drawing can assume are set up. The drawing status is only checked if the Status Check field in the PDM Setup page has the option Show Error or Confirm Individually.
Note
If CAD / PDM or PLM systems are connected using the COSMO PDM CAD Connector module, the drawing status must correspond to that of the connected system.
