Configuring Sun Master Indexes

Configuring the MIDM Source Record Page

The Source Record page is where anMIDM user adds new records to the master index database and performs actions against a source record rather than an enterprise record. This page includes sub-screen configurations, which means there are a series of tabbed pages within the Source Record page. These pages each provide different functions, such as view and edit, compare and merge, and create a new record.

Configuring the Source Record Page Definition

You can configure certain display options for the main Source Record page, including the order in which the tab appears on the MIDM and the name of the page.

ProcedureTo Configure the Source Record Page Definition

  1. In the Projects window, expand the Configuration node in the project you want to modify, and then double-click midm.xml.

    The file opens in the NetBeans XML editor.

  2. Scroll to the source-record element (located in the gui-definition element).

  3. To specify a different name for the Source Record tab, modify the value of the tab-name element.

  4. To change the order in which the Source Record tab appears on the MIDM, change the value of the display-order element.

    Note –

    You might need to renumber the remaining tabs to keep the numbering sequential.

  5. Save and close the file.

Configuring the Tabbed Pages on the Source Record Page

You can configure any of the pages on the Source Record page by changing the tab name and display order and by enabling or disabling each page. Do not modify the search page or search results list for the sub-screens. Below is a sample configuration for the View/Edit page on the Source Record page.


<subscreen>
   <enable>true</enable>
   <root-object>Person</root-object>
   <tab-name>View/Edit</tab-name>
   <screen-id>0</screen-id>
   <display-order>0</display-order>
   ...

You should never need to modify the root-object or screen-id elements.

ProcedureTo Configure the Source Record Tabbed Pages

  1. In the Projects window, expand the Configuration node in the project you want to modify, and then double-click midm.xml.

    The file opens in the NetBeans XML editor.

  2. Scroll to the source-records element, and then to the subscreen element containing name of the tab you want to modify.

  3. To specify a new name for the tab, modify the value of the tab-name element.

  4. To disable the sub-screen, change the value of the enable element to false.

  5. To enable the sub-screen, change the value of the enable element to true.

  6. To change the order in which the tab appears on the Source Records page, change the value of the display-order element.

    Note –

    You might need to renumber the remaining tabs to keep the numbering sequential.
