Moving items subsets
Subsets are used in GRANTA MI to group records in a table with common
properties together, making it easier to find the records you are interested
in. Subsets can optionally be associated with a specific layout, and used
to:
- Restrict access to part of a table,
- Simplify data, by showing only relevant records
or attributes to users,
- Provide a different perspective on the data.
Subsets are defined in MI:Admin; MI:Viewer users with Edit privilege
can move records, generic records, folder, and tables into and out of
subsets as described below.
To add records, folders, or
tables to a subset/remove them from a subset
- Locate the item in the Contents tree and click
Edit on the item
menu button .
- Under Manage, click the
Add/Remove ... to/from a subset
option.
The current subset membership for the selected item is shown at
the top of the page; the lower list shows the available subsets.
- To add a record to a subset, simply click Add
Record.
- To add a folder, generic record, or table, you can choose to:
- Add the item to the subset but not add any of the folders and
records it contains. To do this, click Add
Generic record, Add folder,
or Add table.
- Add the item and all of the
records and folders it contains to the subset. To do this,
click Branch.
- To remove an item from a subset, in the current subset membership
section at the top of the page, click Remove.
