There appears to be a workflow-breaking issue when using multiple Revit project files in the BIM 360 environment regarding shared coordinates.
Currently if you upload multiple project files, all sharing the same coordinate system, to BIM 360 and then you need to modify the coordinates of any of those files, there does not appear to be a good way to achieve this. See this knowledge article for reference to the issue here.
A common workflow for this at my firm is to have a Master Coordinate file which sets the coordinate system that all other project files are linked into and acquire coordinates from. That way, if a project location ever changes, we can open the master coordinate file, move the corresponding link, and then publish coordinates back to the link to save the change. However, in BIM 360, the "Publish Coordinates" feature is disabled. The only way that I have found to get around this for a large set of models is to download them all locally, adjust the coordinates, and then re-upload all project files to the BIM 260 Hub.
While the changing of coordinates shouldn't happen often it is detrimental to see that a feature that works in the local version of Revit is somehow disabled in the BIM 360 platform. Fixing this for the BIM 360 platform will save potentially hours of time having to download, modify and re-upload project files to the cloud environment. The more accurate we become with our BIM development the more we need our tools to help us out to do that job. Shared coordinates are a big part of working with existing clients and large campuses of buildings. Not being able to tweak these during design is a massive hindrance to the entire team, design and construction.
