This chapter contains the topic:
You can create your own screen IDs in addition to the ASSET screen ID. A screen ID is used to group versions. For example, you might group versions by department or user group. Doing this reduces the number of versions on one screen ID. After you create your own screen ID, you can copy versions from another screen ID and attach the new screen ID to a menu as a selection.
Complete the following steps:
To create a screen ID
To copy versions from another screen ID
From Fixed Assets (G12), choose Cost Information & Reports
From Cost Information & Reports (G1213), choose User Defined Reports
On User Defined Reports
Complete the following field with your new ID:
Form ID
A new screen ID appears. The screen ID field is highlighted because no versions exist.
To add a version, choose Copy (Option 3) on a blank line.
Enter the new version name and modify the report specifications as desired.
To copy versions from another screen ID
From DREAM Writer (G81), choose Copy/Move DW Parameters
After you create a new screen ID, you can copy versions from another screen ID.

A – Add the versions to the current versions list. This is the default value. R – Delete all existing versions in the screen ID being copied to and then copy the specified versions, keeping their current version numbers. |
