Link To a Master Document

Linking to a master document can be useful when you import a new document into a project folder from outside the vault. In this scenario, the document should have become a project copy of a master document that resides in the vault, but it was not copied from the master document using a managed change command. Linking the new project copy will create a reference to the master document that you select and will create a revision of the master document when the linked copy is released.

Note:

The command is unavailable if:

  • You select the two documents in the reverse order.

  • One of the documents is under change.

  • The imported document is already linked to a master document.

  • The imported document is not in a project folder.

  • The master document is not in a higher folder level than the project folder.

  • The master document already has a project copy.
