Updating Documentation Reference of Templates Unaffected by Screening

The Documentation References of Templates generated from older revisions of a Reference manual can be updated to align with the Baseline/Active Revision.

When Screening of a full manual revision is complete, the Update Templates to Manual option is available on the Active Revisions of the manuals in the Manual Catalog Management. This allows you to update the Documentation References of the Templates and publish them. This also ensures that the Documentation References of the Templates generated from the Reference Manuals are updated both at the Template and Step level.

Note

This action is available only for the Templates that were not affected during the Screening process.

Also, this action is not available for Incremental Revisions.

To update the Documentation Reference of Templates:

  1. In the main menu, go to Enterprise > Documentation Bundles > Manual Catalog Management.
