Completing the Detailing of a Function

Detailing out a function removes the parent function record, promotes the associated subfunctions to high-level functions, and promotes the child subfunctions to subfunctions. If the parent function is a space hold record, detailing out removes the space hold.

To complete the detailing of a function by detailing out the parent function, follow this procedure.

To complete the detailing of a function

1. In the Functions list, select the parent function.

2. Click the Menu button and choose Detail Out/Remove Space Hold.

   The parent function is deleted, and the subfunctions are promoted to functions along with the spaces in which they are booked. The child subfunctions are promoted to subfunctions. Any space that was part of the larger space hold, and that is not used by the subfunctions, is released and becomes available again.

3. (Optional) After the parent function and associated subfunctions are reserved, you can click the link in the Date field of the function record to navigate to the Function Space Diary.

   In the diary, only the parent function is displayed. After the user details out the parent function, however, the subfunctions become functions and are displayed in the diary. The parent function is no longer displayed. For more information about the Function Space Diary display, see About the Function Space Diary.
