Jobs Grid Edit

General Information

The editing grid works much like an Excel spreadsheet. It allows the user to quickly view and edit some of the jobs within the currently selected plan. This window may be re-sized and the software will remember the position upon returning. All of the columns in the grid may be reordered by using the mouse to click, hold and drag the column to the desired position. Columns may also be re-sized. The window can be accessed by clicking the Job icon on the toolbar and selecting Job Grid Edit from the Tools Menu. Missing or invalid codes are highlighted in yellow.

• Delete Button
