This document describes the recommended way to configure Deep Space for automated model audit.
Model Audit Automatic Configuration
Before the Model Audit datasets are refreshed, an automated procedure for Preflight Model Audit settings is run.
This procedure takes the following steps automatically:
Sets Control File and Makes Sure Only 1 x Control File Exists
Creates Dataset Refresh Log
Model Audit Manual Setup Checklist
Create a Project
Sync a Model or Models from Revit
Nominate 1 x Model as the Control File
Create Teams and Allocate Files to Teams. Use Special Disciplines where possible.
Special Discipline List for Model Audit
These Disciplines are used on the Model Audit Home Page:
Architecture
Structure
Mechanical
Hydraulic (or Plumbing)
Electrical
Fire
Other Disciplines are not shown on the Home Page.

Below various points are covered in more detail.
Worksets
For each File, define the Workset Set
Ensure that the Workset Set contains at least 1 Workset entry (you can define one workset as the datum workset)
Project Phases
Navigate to BIM Manager - Project Phases and define your Project phase requirements (this can be done with a script from the Control File)
Revit Version
Navigate to BIM Manager - Project BIM Protocols and add the applicable Revit Version for the Project (this can be done with a script)
Levels (Legacy Method, Replaced By Control File)
Navigate to BIM Manager - Levels and define your Project Levels (this can be done with a script from the Control File)
Grids (Legacy Method, Replaced By Control File)
Navigate to BIM Manager - Grids and define your project grid names (this can be done with a script from the Control File)
Required Views
Navigate to BIM Manager - Views and define your view requirements. You can define required 3D or RCP views by Level, with or without a suffix
Refresh (Legacy Method)
Once you have defined the above settings:
Open the Model Audit Report template in PowerBI
Edit - Parameters and ensure you set the Source File ID correctly
Press Refresh in PowerBI
Once Refreshed, save the Report with a unique filename and optionally Publish to your dedicated Client PowerBI Workspace
Comments and Actions
You can optionally add Comments and Actions to the report:
Once the Report has refreshed, navigate through the Report pages
If you see any high priority actionable items, navigate to Files - BIM Files - and click the blue hyperlink next to the File you are auditing
Click Comments and Add New Comments
Type your comment in the top field, then tick the "Show As Audit Note" option
You can optionally describe the action needed to rectify the issue - click on the blue hyperlink on a Comment row
