Inserting a Record

Data Editor allows you to insert new records into the MES database. All data entered must still meet all MES Business Rules requirements.

To insert a new record

1. Click the Insert button at the bottom of the window.

   An insert window for the currently selected tab appears.

   The insert 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.

2. After you have completed entering data for the new record, do one of the following:

   • To save the new record, click Save.

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

   • To cancel the insertion of the record, click Cancel.

     The edit window closes and the new record is discarded.
