You can click on the column header to sort the entries. Clicking on the column header again, will reverse the sort. Small arrows in the column header let you know which way the data is currently sorted.
Resource Name The Resource Name shows both the name and the number of the resource to help you select the resources you need for the learning event. Version Text The Version Text of the resource. Unlike the Version field, this field is user editable, so you can enter the version number or text of the resource, if applicable. Status The current Status of the resource. Once the initiative that uses the resource is approved, then the resource is also approved. You can also approve a resource manually by viewing the resource on the Resources tab and then selecting Approve on the screen. You cannot approve a resource from the Edit screen. |
Select the resource you want to update to the latest version, then select Update that shows at the top of the Resources table. This will update all versions of the selected resource that are used or cited in the initiative to the latest version of the resource. Note: You can only update to the latest version of the resource that is in LEAD. So, if you have three versions of a resource, versions 1, 2, and 3, and version 1 is currently cited/used in your initiative, you can ONLY update to version 3, you cannot update to version 2. Once the update process has finished, the latest version of the resource is displayed in the list (now without a flag) and any previous versions of the resource are no longer listed. The New Version flags that show you where the resource has been used or cited in your initiative change to System flags to show you that an object cited by this item has been changed. After you review the item that uses or cites the resource, you can either delete the flag on the Explain Flag screen if no change is necessary, or edit the item that uses or cites the resource. If you are on version 2 or higher of the initiative, you will get a User Edited flag after saving the edits to the item. |
