Facility Form

Form Name: Facility

File Name: N/A

Software: EQuIS Professional

Source: EQuIS Professional install

 

Description: In EQuIS Professional, use the Facility form to add a new facility or edit facility information.

 

Installation Instructions: The Facilty form is part of the EQuIS Professional installation. No additional steps are necessary.

 

Overview:

Create New Facility

1.In EQuIS Professional, log into the database where you want the new facility.

2.Click Home > Forms form(32).

3.Within the Forms window, select Facility, then Open. This automatically opens details for the current facility.

4.Click New icon_new-16.

30341-new_facility

 

6.Click Save to save the new facility. You can now log in to your new facility.

 

Notes:

DT_FACILITY.FACILITY_CODE, which corresponds to "Code" on the Facility Form, must be unique. When the Facility Form is opened, the current facility's information appears and may be edited and saved. Outside of that scenario, an existing facility's data cannot be overwritten using this form.

When the "New" button is pressed, clearing the Facility Form, only a new facility may be created. If an existing facility is entered into the Code field, the database does not save due to the unique constraint placed on FACILITY_CODE by the database, although the "Save Successful" message still appears.
