Notes on using Common for Sheet and Common for Document cell types

Scroll

Within one sheet, use of Common for Document and Common for Sheet types (see Types of cells in the Title Block Table), the same result is achieved: the data entered into cells of this type can be transferred (if the identifiers match) to cells of other tables on the same sheet. However Common for document type is more versatile: it provides copying of data also between sheets of a multi-sheet document. Since any of the title blocks can be used for multi-sheet documents, it is recommended to follow the following rules.

Cells containing data unique to the sheet (for example, a change number) must be of Common for Sheet type. If there are cells among these cells, the data in which should be the same, assign them the same identifiers – this will ensure the automatic filling of the remaining cells on the sheet after filling in any one.

Cells containing data unique to the document (for example, its designation, part name, enterprise designation) must be of the Common for Document type. If there are cells among these cells, the data in which should be the same, assign them the same identifiers – this will ensure the automatic filling of the remaining cells on the sheet(s) after filling in any one.

Cells that are filled in manually after printing a document (for example, cells for signatures) can be of Common for Sheet, as well as of Common for Document type. It is only necessary to ensure that they do not transmit any information from other cells. For a cell ofCommon for Sheet type, this is achieved by assigning a unique identifier value, and for a cell of Common for Document type, by assigning the User-defined identifier with a unique value.
