Add Attribute

Overview

The process to add an attribute to a mix design is available through the Attributes Tab of the Mix Design Details Tab. The process is nearly identical to adding an attribute to a mix design template, with the exception of the "Default Include in Print" functionality provided in the Templates Attributes Tab.

 

Prerequisites

A mix design must have been added.

 

Add Attribute

To add an attribute to a mix design:

  • Search for and select a mix design from the drop-down menu.

  • Click on the "Add" button above the Attributes table.

    OR

  • Right click anywhere in the Attributes table.

  • Select "Add" in the context-sensitive menu.

  • The Add Attribute Window will appear.

    • Enter the required fields as indicated by an asterisk. Enter an attribute name, a value source, a list (if applicable), and a value.

    • Enter other information including checking boxes to indicate if the attribute will be required or included in printed reports.

    • Click on the Save Button.

  • Note that the new attribute is added to the Attributes Table.

 

Notes

  • Users can also mark an attribute for inclusion in printed reports by checking the box in the "Print" column of the Attributes table.

  • Administrators can manage the available lists and associated values for attributes in the Codes Window.

  • Users are prevented from saving changes to a system item to which changes have already been made. This prevents concurrency errors.
