Clone Current Equipment Wizard

  1. Clone From Equipment

    Enter the Company and I.D. of the equipment that you are cloning. The current equipment is the default.

  2. New Equipment Attributes

    Enter the name of the Company, I.D., and Serial Number of the new equipment that will be created as a result of the cloning process. The current company is the default company. The current serial number is the default serial number. NOTE: Use the Auto Numbering Wizard

to quickly and consecutively add an ID number(s) to the equipment.

  1. Cloning Options

    Choose the cloning options. Most of the options involve fields that can be selected for cloning, as a default, all options are selected. If only a few fields should be excluded from the cloning process you can deselect any exceptions. Other non-field options include:

·Overwrite Any Existing Default Test Points: This option will allow you to overwrite existing test points, if you are cloning over a previously entered gage. If this option is not chosen, then a dialog will appear asking you whether you want the test points to be merged in or not. In this case, IndySoft will only merge in a test point's information if that new gage's test point Standard is equal to the old gage's test point Standard. Also, only the test point information that is checked in the 'Cloning Options' will be merged.

·Locate Equipment After Cloning: If this option is checked, IndySoft will find the new gage after the cloning process is complete.

·Default Empty Schedules: If the new gage Company and I.D. matches equipment that already exist in IndySoft, then the user will be prompted as to whether they want to Clone the old information over the existing equipment. When you are done cloning, press 'Finished' to exit, or press 'Finish and Repeat' to clone another piece of equipment. |
