The Files tab enables you to view and insert links to files associated with test results. If there are notes associated with the results, this tab displays in the alert color specified on Preferences -> Color Setup.. You can use the % wildcard character to filter the results of choice-lists on this screen. The Test Results screen supports location-level access control, so you must belong to a user group with the applicable authorizations to make changes or updates.
Note: Test Element Validation: If there is a check in the Validate test element values upon entry field on the Options tab of the Data -> Shop Activity -> Setup -> Options screen and you enter a value on this tab that is not allowed, you must delete it before the record may be saved. In addition, if required data has not been entered, you must enter it before the record may be saved.
If the Validate test element values upon entry field is blank, these requirements are not enforced until you close the test result.
Tip: To limit the display of information in the grid and maximize performance, use the filter. You can sort on test ID, work order information, status, part ID/suffix, segment ID, to/from marker ID, and to/from offset, among other values. If you specify a range, any record that crosses any part of that range will be displayed. Search results are limited to data for locations to which the user group has been granted access.
The fields in the top section of this tab define the data that displays.
