GP: What are user-defined fields and when are they used

Revision Date: 2005-09-02

PQ Systems recognizes that customers have their own set of needs for the software. GAGEpack provides a variety of options for customizing the software to individual needs. User-defined fields allow you to define a field that is not already in GAGEpack. For instance, if you sort gages by color, you could create a user-defined field for color. Each user-defined field will show up on every gage in your database. You will not be required to have information in all fields. To set up a user-defined field:

  1. Select the Setup Menu.

  2. Select User-Defined Fields.

  3. In the User field name column, type a name for the first field you wish to define.

  4. If you want to specify a choice list for this field, type the name of the list or choose one from the list. This must b an existing choice list. You can click on the New Choice list button in the lower right corner to create a list.

  5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each field you want to define.

  6. When have finished defining fields, select OK.
