(1) Can I Check-in multiple file types in one document revision (1Document Class/1Document Number/1Revision/1Sheet)?
(e.g., save a combination of a DWG file, an EXCEL file and a PDF file)

 

(2) If (1) above is Yes, is it possible to Check-in multiple file types, each with only one file? 
(e.g. Check-in only one file from the registered DWG file, EXCEL file and PDF file)

Our data model supports any number of files to be stored against a document revision, even multiple files of the same type. There is however no user interface support and functionality that uses the capability fully more than the original file + view copy scenario.

So, even if the data model supports what you want to do, you cannot do it today without a customization of the client.

I would recommend you use document structures and/or sheets to keep multiple files against the same document.

What is it that you are trying to achieve?
