Save to Topic dialog box

The Save to Topic dialog box saves tabular data or graphs as an attachment.

Note:

You can save objects to a topic only if you have the work team permission to add, edit, and delete attachments in open topics/actions.

When you save signal objects to a topic, you either create a new topic with minimal information or add the attachment to an existing topic or one of its actions.

Another user can edit a topic while you are saving an attachment to that topic; however, if the other user closes or deletes the topic during this time, you are prevented from saving the attachment and an error message is displayed.

Note:

If the topic workflow configuration has changed, when you click OK on the Save to Topic dialog, Oracle Empirica Signal will warn you that the topic workflow configuration has changed and won't save your changes. Close the dialog and perform your Save to Topic again.
