No (Schedule Event Types Table)

The number (No) column provides a sequential count of the entries, which is not attached to the entries themselves.

Name

The Name is the text that will show in the drop-down.

Event Code

The Event Code is the abbreviated version of the schedule event name that is used when the full name doesn't fit.

Default?

The Default? checkbox shows whether the item is selected by default when the schedule is first created. There can only be one item selected as the default. You cannot unselect the checkbox. Instead go to the item that should be the default and check that box, which will automatically uncheck the checkbox of the previous default item.

Is Active?

When the Is Active? checkbox is checked, the item is made active. An active item can be selected.

Unchecking the checkbox makes the item inactive. Any existing links to the list item will remain when the item is made inactive. An inactive item can no longer be selected.

Is Performance Assessment? (For Assessment Event Types Only)

When the Is Performance Assessment? checkbox is checked, the assessment is a performance assessment and will include only performance job sheet test items.

Unchecking the checkbox makes the assessment a knowledge assessment, which will include all other test items, except for performance job sheet test items.

Finding Entries

If you can't find the entry you're looking for, enter a search term in the Find: field and select Search. The table will list all entries that contain your search term on the screen.

You can click on the column headers of each table to sort the entries by that column. Clicking on a column header again will reverse the sort. Clicking on the column header a third time will remove the sort. Small arrows in the column header let you know which way the data is currently sorted.
