Buttons on object forms

The forms intended for processing objects and tasks are identical in their structure and functions. Only the information content of the forms varies based on the type of object being edited at the given time. Therefore, each form can only process items according to the form type, for example electric cables in the Electric cable form and electric poles in the Electric pole form.

You can retrieve information about all items by clearing the form with the Clear button and pressing the Search button. If you want to search the form for information about a certain type of objects, you can search using the search criteria. For example, if you want information about all the items in the Electric Cable form which Installation type is Buried, select Buried from the drop-down menu in the Installation type field and press the Search button.

Functions of the toolbar

The More menu functions are always the same even though the information content of the forms may vary. In other words, the buttons always function in the same way for all network objects and on all forms. The buttons that are displayed depend on the user’s privileges. For example, read-only users cannot update information. If the button is dimmed, it is not available. The button functions are introduced in the next chapters.
