Breaking Linked Events

There are two methods you can use to break the link of events, each producing a different outcome for the events:
  • Break the link between the last linked event and its parent, making the last event the parent event

  • Change a linked event to become the parent event, with subsequent events as the new parent’s linked events

  1. Select the property, click Configuration, and then click Event Definitions.
  2. Double-click the event record to open it in form view.
  3. Click the Links tab.
  4. To break the link between the last event and its parent:
    1. Click the Break Link link.
    2. Click Yes at the confirmation. The last linked event in the list is removed, and it now appears in the Event Definitions module search/table view as a parent event.
  5. To change a linked event into a parent event:
    1. On the Links tab, double-click the linked event record (for example, select linked event 3 of 5) to open the Linked Event Details dialog.
    2. Click the Break Link button.
    3. Click Yes at the confirmation. Linked event 3 becomes a parent event, and linked events 4 and 5 become its child linked events 1 and 2.

      A linked event that has the chain broken from its parent event in the Linked Event Details dialog is available in the Event Definitions module search/table view, and contains any subsequent linked events as its linked events.
