Recognize Drawing Revision as newest, not Version

Drawing log should have the option to have the highest Revision number be selected.  Currently, the highest Version is the drawing on top.  If drawings are uploaded out of sequence (ex. new drawings are issued in a Change Notice, and others are issued in Site Instructions), then possibly the most recent revision is not the drawing "on top".  This could also be done by sorting by the Issued Date.

    This is CRITICALLY impacting our company. We are a full MEPF subcontractor needing to constantly uploaded mutliple disciplines on hundreds of jobs. Not being able to add an oldrer set without having to delete everything and start over uploading in sequence is drasticially impacting us. We are spending hours on drawings. There needs to be an option to go back and insert an older set and organize it by revisions so that my older set is not on top as the current sheet. Why hasnt this been resolevd yet? We really need this in order to get the fully benefite of VP Team.

    This is IMPARATIVE for the function of the drawings tool! We have hundreds of active projects at a time and if something happens and we have to upload a previous set for any reason (accidentally missed uploading it, etc.) we do not have time to go back and delete sets and re-upload them just to add an older set in the proper order. Especially for companies that are trying to roll out using VP Team within their company (like us), we are having to back into projects. Uploading 5-10 drawing revisions per project is time consuming enough, so when you have to redo it because a set was uploaded out of order it is a huge nightmare. Maybe this is an option during upload of the drawings there is an option of where it falls in the sequence. We can already change the revision number, perhaps the tool just functions to display the drawings based on the revision number, that way we have control of what drawings are displayed as the current set.
