Configure Engineering Change User-Defined Labels
Use this screen to customize additional data elements to classify engineering change notices (ECNs).
You can use user-defined labels to enter and track more information about your ECNs. These data elements will be available on the Manage Engineering Change Notices screen, where you can add, modify, or view the values for these User-Defined Labels. The user-defined fields will also be available for printing on the ECN Traveler and the ECN History Report.
These labels are optional and are completed for any selected ECN through the User-Defined Info screen. You can also use this screen to set up validated text and labels so that you can control what is entered into the user-defined fields. Validated text labels allow use of the Lookup function and can be created in either of the following ways:
- Select the Validated Text check box and use the Validated Text subtask to customize the information you and your users will view when using the Lookup function in the User-Defined Labels screen.
- Clear the
Validated Text column and click
in the
Costpoint Validation Field column to select the Costpoint data table column that will be used for the Lookup function in the User-Defined Info screen.
You must set up the labels or validated text for user-defined fields here before they are available in the User-Defined Info screen. Although you can set them up at any time, for more complete ECN information, you should set them up before you enter any ECNs.
