Question :
If I have to model more than one indentical model/building in one project, and need to put the model code into the position marking, what should I set ?

The members in same position should have the same position number.
For example :

01PC001 = Column Position Marking from model 01
02PC001 = Column Position Marking from model 02

Answer :

Yes, you can have the same position number in two models if the models are identical. 

1. Set the code of model or Project Code in the UDA of Project Properties

An example at the Project Comment field :

2. Open Advance Setting
At the field of Numbering, set below :

XS_ASSEMBLY_POSITION_NUMBER_FORMAT_STRING          
%UDA:PROJECT_COMMENT%%ASSEMBLY_PREFIX%%ASSEMBLY_POS.3%

XS_PART_POSITION_NUMBER_FORMAT_STRING
%UDA:PROJECT_COMMENT%%PART_PREFIX%%PART_POS.3% 

%UDA:PROJECT_COMMENT%  will read from the Project Properties UDA Project Comment field.

%ASSEMBLY_PREFIX% and %PART_PREFIX% will read from prefix field in part properties numbering series

%ASSEMBLY_POS.3% and  %PART_POS.3%  will read from the assembly and part position number after numbering.
.3 will add three digits to the number.

When the number in UDA Project Comment field changes, it will directly affect all position marking prefixes for this project code.
