| Field Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Autocompletes delay on typing | The default value in this box is 200 ms (milliseconds) but this can be reduced to shorten the delay in searching when typing into an auto-complete field. |
| Enable Hierarchical Grids |
Available from 5.0.0.0 Check the box to enable Hierarchical grids on Assets and Instruction Sets. The check box has been replaced with a multi-select dropdown of system entities that can have hierarchical grids enabled. Select all required values from the following:
|
| Exclude Zero Records from Data Queries |
Enable this option to prevent a legacy check for the presence of zero records in the database tables prior to running the query to return records. Enabling this option should provide a performance improvement when returning data to the user. This option will be enabled automatically during the data transfer process if zero records are not present in the database tables. Note: Enabling this option while zero records are present in the database tables will have adverse affects to the system - blank rows will appear in auto-completes, grids and assignment controls, in some cases the page may error. |
| Query to control Hazard / Alert visibility in grids |
Available from 5.3.0.0 Optionally, select the most appropriate Query from the list of Hazards & Alert specific Queries that will be used to filter records in grids containing Hazards & Alerts throughout the system. The field label is a hyperlink that allows the User to open the selected Query in the Query editor page, subject to the required Permission. If 'No selection' is selected in the field, the hyperlink will open the Query editor, allowing the User to create their own System Query. Note: The -No selection- criteria for displaying Hazards & Alerts in grids is the standard 'out of the box': Status is not equal to Removed and current date is between Hazard & Alert start and end dates (taking NULL dates in to account). |
