Creating Status Codes
This section covers the necessary steps involved in creating a new status code within the Metrix Asset Management System. This extends to the initial creation of the code with status effect. In subsequent sections, editing and deleting status codes is discussed.
To create a new status code within Metrix, complete the following steps:
-
Navigate to the ‘Status Codes’ management page (Assets Menu > Status Codes).
-
Click on ‘Create New Status Code’ at the top of the page.
-
This will initialise a new status code and display a dialog box waiting for additional details.
-
From here, you will need to set the ‘Status Name’, the ‘Status Effect’ (see Status Codes), and a brief ‘Description’ for the new status code.
-
When you have finished defining the status code, click ‘Create’
Editing a status code is restricted to updating the description only. Other properties including the status label and the status effect cannot be modified after initial creation.
