Prerequisites

Prior to running Create Stocklist, ensure that the fire protection drawing meets the following prerequisites:

• At least one pipe, or run of pipe, must be assigned a LISTing tag. This can be done via the Tag Setup command.
  • While not required, it is recommended this is done in a Fabrication View for ease and to avoid clutter in the project.
• A stocklist cannot pass through, or list through mechanical equipment (Example: Pumps).
• A Stop Sign can be placed to indicate where the listing process should end.

If all of this is satisfied, click Create Stocklist.

It will open up a new window, which will require additional information on the first running of Create Stocklist.

If any of the boxes or sections labelled *Heads, Pipes, Hangers and Options is not lit up green, they require information to be mapped to them before proceeding.

By clicking on the boxes in question, the information in those sections can be manually entered to the user's specifications or done automatically by clicking Load Defaults as seen below. After making any changes, click Apply to ensure that at the end of the information mapping process, the greyed out Continue button will become selectable again.

Once all of this is completed, the Continue button should be selectable whereupon clicking, information will be transferred to the HydraLIST standalone application where the newly created Stocklist can be reviewed and changed if need be.
