How to Show a Project No. on a Report in CADmep?
« on: Dec 30, 2025, 18:52:58 PM »
I want to find a way to show the Project No. on a report (*.IRP).  The Project No is the field shown in "General" tab in JOBINFO as shown in the attached picture.

I thought it was the "Job Project" field.  But it turns out to be the folder name for a project.  This works in CAMduct because we have all the .MAJ files of a project stored in one folder whose folder name happens to be the project number.  Unfortunately, this doesn't work in CADmep because we store the drawing files in a different folder with a different naming convention.

I think it should be the "Job Project Level 1" field.  But it turns out to be the same as the folder name for a project in CAMduct - meaning that it is the same as "Job Project" field mentioned above.  Moreover, it is blank in CADmep.

The only reliable way to do this is to add a new "Job Custom Data" to keep the project number.  This will certainly work.  But I am looking for a "ready-to-go" way to show the Project No, and don't want to add yet another "Job Custom Data".

Would you please tell me how I can show the Project No?  Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your prompt reply.  "Job Drawing Number" works!

Now the same report can show the correct project number in both CADmep and CAMduct.

I greatly appreciate your help!
