    Creating a new project in Projectwise with standard folders?

    This might be a simple question but I can't seem to find the solution. All I want to do is create a new project and have the same set of folders, subfolders and dgn files in every project. A template. Can Projectwise do this?

    Thanks.

      Yes. You'll need an area in ProjectWise designated to hold your templates. Create that area and create a sub-folder with the Template name. Under that create your folders, subfolders and dgn files (scan ref the dgn files in the template if they have reference files, when the template is copied references will be updated to the new project).

      Your projectwise administrator (if that's not you) will then designate that Template area in the ProjectWise administrator datasource settings. Documentation here:

      https://docs.bentley.com/LiveContent/web/ProjectWise%20Administrator%20Help-v9/en/GUID-8295E6CB-8C60-0C95-4648-05E84C6D8A67.html

      Once that's done when you create a new work area using the Work Area Creation Wizard you can pick the template. Instructions on the creation wizard are here:

      (edit to fix grammar and spelling errors)
