Overview
•Three major tools for customizable data fields
Value Labels
User Data
Custom Attributes
•Comparison of these three tools
•Typical Uses•Extending the value
Value Labels
•Where they’re found:• Product Specification/Product Catalog
(therefore, PSR only)
• Used to gather order-entry data about a product
User Data
•How they work
• Created against the specific area you’re trying
to cover
• Used with Categories to produce Lists
• Appears against the specific item designated
(Circuit, NetLoc, etc.)
User Data
•How they work
•Column Name: Unique, Uppercase only
•Data Type: Number, Decimal, Varchar2 (Alphanumeric), Date, and Dropdown
•Category & Type: Used to create dropdown values
•Relationship: For use with Categories, provides list validation
•Value for Existing Rows: Fill in values for existing items
•Label: Display label (can be changed)
•Visible: Used to hide a field you no longer want to use
•Required: Marks a value as required (not effective)
User Data
•Dropdowns are Lists or Table references
using User Data “Categories” Dropdown as a List Dropdown as a Table reference
Extending the Value
•Each tool has a limited “reach” within the application
•These limitations can be overcome to a degree by
customizations -
• Custom Validations
• Gateway Events
• Custom Extensions
Extending the Value - ExamplePSR User Data (Order-level data)
PSR Order Custom Validation
1 - Copy order-level data from PSR to Trunk Group(s) and Trunk Circuit(s) User Data2 - Copy SI Value Labels for Trunks Groups to Trunk Group(s) and Trunk Circuit(s) User Data
Task Completion Custom Validation (CKTID Task)
3 - Copy order-level data from PSR to Circuit(s) User Data4 - Copy SI Value Labels for Circuits to Circuit(s) User Data
PSR Value Labels (Serv Item-level data)
