How to Create a Field Set
Field Sets in Asset Vision data views help the data appear in a more structured way for ease of use and readability, and improve organization of displayed information related to a selected field. The user can also modify and augment the form data grouping based on defaults and custom named containers and objects.
Field Set Example
Field Sets are visible whenever the user chooses to edit a record in a data view:
Editing the record then drills down into details about the object selected. In many cases under the Overview tab, the information is displayed using Field Sets, logical groupings of the data. These groupings can be expanded or collapsed to better display the more pertinent data.
Access Field Set configuration
As stated before, although most data views already have default field sets, the defaults can be modified, or new field sets can be created. This is done by modifying the structure of a data view.
- Open an existing data view and click Edit Structure.
- In the Data view structure modification window, click the "Field Sets" tab.
Add a Field Set
To add a new field set, click the New button. In the Edit Field Set dialog, specify the Name and the Label that will be displayed in the field Overview. Check the Collapse by default option to hide the field set details when the field overview is first opened. Click Save to save options, or click Reset to reset the form back to start over.
Modify an existing Field Set
To modify an existing Field Set, click the "Pencil" icon for the desired Field Set record. In the Edit Field Set dialog, modify the Label or the Collapse by default options as needed. Click Save to save the edits, or click Reset to reset the form back to the previously-saved settings.
