Circular Reference Warning

[Anonymous]

Have Vault warn users that a circular reference exists when checking in documents, at the very least.

Currently, I can check-in documents with a circular reference.  No warning appears, and the 'Uses' tab displays incorrectly the relationships.

This is in regards to AutoCAD, as Inventor doesn't allow this.

Maybe have Vault recognize the 'overlay' xref option with AutoCAD.

I believe this has been improved but not solved with Vault 2016 because you are warned when an xref under an Overlay is missing. However https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/vault-ideas/where-is-the-unresolved-xref/idi-p/7106631
