Copying a Record

Data Editor allows you to copy certain data records in the MES database to create a new record. All data entered must still meet all MES Business Rules requirements.

To copy a data record

1. Select the record in the grid that you want to copy.

2. Click the Copy button at the bottom of the window.

   An edit window for the new copied record appears.

   The edit window includes all editable data fields. Required fields are denoted by bold labels. If you attempt to save your changes and a required field does not have an entry, you will be prompted to complete the required field.

3. After you have completed your edits to the copy, do one of the following:

   • To save your edits, click Save.

     The edit window closes and the grid is refreshed with the updated record.

   • To cancel your edits, click Cancel.

     The edit window closes and your edits are discarded.
