In this fourth episode of the Mastering E3.series series, we’ll take a step forward and focus on one of the most important stages in any project: preparing for release and generating accurate documentation.
Preparing for the Project Release
By the time you’re ready to release your project, you’ve probably invested hours of hard work, and you’re now so close to delivering the final output. Whether you’re releasing the design into a PLM system or handing it over to a colleague on the shop floor, E3.series offers robust tools to ensure that all your documentation is in order.
Exporting PDF Files with Precision
PDF exports are a vital part of any project handover. In this episode, you’ll learn how to export individual sheets or entire projects, with options to include all necessary links between source and destination arrows. This feature ensures that even when you don’t have access to E3.series, you can trace connections within the PDF, enabling efficient troubleshooting in field conditions.
Automating Report Generation
We’ll also introduce you to the reporting capabilities within E3.series. Whether it’s a bill of materials, content sheets, or more detailed reports, E3.series makes it easy. You can generate reports using Excel or the built-in report generator, which offers flexibility for customizing the output according to your project needs.
Harry also highlights the power of the report generator, a feature that simplifies the creation of detailed reports for design reviews and manufacturing. The generator allows you to customize reports based on high-level assignments or specific components, making it easier to manage and distribute accurate project information.
Learn How to Create Your Own Reports
In this video Harry will take you through the process of using the report generator step by step, showing how to structure your reports and deliver key insights to your stakeholders. While this episode focuses on the reporting side of things, future episodes will dive deeper into report design itself.
