Default Cases

Default cases in are set in the datasheets template so that all the datasheet instances created (based on the datasheet template with the desired case values) are auto-populated instead of setting the desired cases in each datasheet instance (admin task). The cases are preferably created and added to the MDB in the Engineer module before logging in the Configuration module to map the cases under Items properties. Refer to Cases and Default Cases for further information.

Notes:

Where the case values are changed by the user when loading a datasheet template, a message is displayed to update case controls.

Create/Open - If the case control has a default case defined, then the attribute values should be loaded based on the default case, else the default case is treated as the first case as it is today.

Upon upgrading of datasheet Instance, if the default case has been updated, then while opening the datasheet instance the attribute values need to be loaded based on its dependent case.

The case can be modified in the datasheet instance and once changed it should be saved to only that specific datasheet instance but not override the datasheet template default value.

It can be overridden to only the datasheet instance.

Upon Excel import/export the case control values works as previous.
