Multiple File Upload (Supercede) to Aconex

  1. Documents --> Multiple File Upload
  2. Multiple File Upload (Java required, you may need to try a different browser, or change your security settings)
  3. Drag & Drop files from explorer in to browser.
  4. Start Upload --- The files will be uploaded to the Temporary Register
  5. Documents --> Document Register
  6. Search for Structural Drawings owned by our company
  7. Select all documents that will be superceded.
  8. Tools --> Bulk Supercede
  9. Most information will be filled out correctly, using copy to panel, change Revision number, date, and comments.
  10. You must still choose the new file from the document dropdown for every file. *** The document file name is not changing so it will look correct, but it is not automatically replacing the document from the temporary documents file list. If the document does not exist when you click in the File pulldown, you did the upload incorrectly. If the document name STILL exists in the temporary document register after you supercede, it was not chosen correctly and must be superceded again. ***
  11. Supercede Document(s)
  12. Check the temporary document register and verify that the new documents are no longer in the temporary folder and/or download the new files and verify visually that the new files are in the document register.
  13. You must still transmit the documents to other aconex members so that they can access the new documents.
