Edit Clash Groups Form

This form enables a supervisor of the Administrator discipline to edit the properties of multiple clash groups or clashes, by changing the owner discipline and/or status and/or adding new comments. If other users edit multiple clash groups or clashes, records to which they do not have access rights are ignored. The clash groups or details concerned are selected at the Clash report.

A change of Discipline or Status automatically creates an additional comment record. This comment will appear in the comments section of the Clash Report and on the Comments tab of the Clash (Group) Properties form.

Any changes to the properties of the clash groups or details are made at the Owner Discipline, Status and Comments dropdown lists. The utilization of the Owner Discipline and Status dropdown lists depend on whether:

1. All, some or none of the clash groups or details have automatically or manually set owner disciplines,

2. All, some or none of the clash groups or details have automatically or manually set status,

3. The current status is the same in all clash groups or details,

4. The current owner discipline is the same in all clash groups or details.

   Situations a. and b. are shown by Auto Rules checkboxes adjacent to the dropdown lists (refer to Clash (Group) Properties Form), whereas c. and d. are shown by characteristics of the dropdown lists. The situations and the displays are summarized in the following table (in which 'item' means Owner Discipline or Status):

   Situation	Dropdown List	Auto Rules Checkbox
   All items manually set	Active - entry can be updated	Blank - can be set to Checked to make the system react as though all items were automatically set
   All items automatically set	Inhibited - text is greyed- out - read-only	Checked - can be set to Blank to make the system react as though all items were manually set
   Some items automatically set others manually set	Inhibited - text is greyed- out - read-only	Checked greyed-out - can be set to Blank or Checked to make all items appear to be manually or automatically set, as above
   All items the same	<item name> displayed	Makes dropdown list active or inhibited, as above
   Items diffe	<...> displayed	Makes dropdown list active or inhibited, as above

5. To update the owner discipline or status of the selected clash groups or details, click on the appropriate Auto Rules checkbox until it is blank and then select the new discipline or status at the dropdown list.

6. When the Apply to each Clash checkbox is checked, the changes made in multiple Clash Groups will apply to each clash within each group.

7. As required, select the required comment at the New Comment dropdown list.

8. To implement the updates and close the form, click on the OK button. To ignore any entries and close the form, click on the Cancel button.
