Component Lists

The Component Lists functional node is a central repository which contains all the component lists existing in an environment and has the following toolbar options:

Create

Click Create to open the New Component List window. The New Component List window is divided into two panes. The left pane lists all of the modules that you can select to include their components in your new component list, and the right pane lists the corresponding components to select. So, if you select the Data Cube Definitions from the left pane, the right pane displays the names of the components (under the Name column), the descriptions of the components (under the Description column), and the option to replace the component in the destination, or not.

List Name

This is a required field and enables you to enter the name for the new component list.

Error Check

This option enables you to check to see if there are any errors or warnings related to the component list.

Cancel

This option enables you to cancel creating the new component list.

Save

This option enables you to save the created component list.

Save As

This option enables you to save a created component list as a different list.

Once you create a new component list, Unifier places the newly created component list in the Component Lists log or window. You can use the gear icon menu, next to the newly created component list to conduct the following operations:

Open
Delete
The user can delete the component list; however, if the component list is a part of any Draft status configuration package, then the user will not be able to delete the component list, and the user will see the following alert message: "The component list is used in a Draft Configuration Package and cannot be deleted."
Print
Download last checked error/warning report
The Component Lists log or window displays all of the created component lists and provides the following details in column format:
List Name
The name assigned to the component list by the user at the time of creation. The component list name will be unique. If the user tries to create a duplicate list the system displays an alert message. See the Creating Component List for for more information.
Last Error Check Status
The status for component list is determined by the Error Check action. There are three different statuses for the component list:
- Pending: This status will be seen for the list which has not been error checked by the user.
- Complete: This status will be seen when the user has performed the error check and there are no errors existing for the component list.
- Error: This status will be seen when the user performed error check and there are errors which need to be resolved for the component list.
Creation Date
The date that the component list was created. This will retain the user's date preferences.
Last Error Check
The date that the error check was performed. This will retain the user's date preferences. If the list is in Pending status then the Last Error Check column will show empty for the corresponding list.
Last Modified Date
The date the component list was last modified on.

The Component Lists log or window is sorted by default on the Creation Date column. All other columns can be sorted as desired.
