changes made to a plan will change its status to "modified",

This allows you to store multiple Inspection Plans in the IP CAD file. When you import an IP CAD file into PC-DMIS that has one or more embedded plans, PC-DMIS allows you to select Inspection Plans using the File | Import | Inspection Plan menu item.
Inspection Plans are included with an IP CAD file when the plan has been "released". To do release a plan, right-click on a "modified" plan and select Release Plan from the pop-up menu. "Released" plans will be embedded with the saved IP CAD file.
