Description/Functionality
|
|
Log In/Log Out
 |
This will either log you into or out of EBS depending on your status (terminate or reinstate your Oracle database connection).
The icon will change depending on your current status. If you are currently logged in, then the icon will show as ‘Log Out’. If you are not logged in the icon will show as ‘Log In’.

 |
This button toggles the display of the ‘Login Info’ information on the ribbon.
|
|
Select Template
 |
This icon will open the ‘Generate template’ form to select a template created by your System Administrator.
This icon will change to display the type of template and template name once selected.
Mode options are different types of transactions that can be recorded using Event Wizard. Once an option is selected and the fields customized you will only have the fields needed to carry out that transaction.
|
|
New Sheet
 |
A new worksheet will be created based on the selected template.
If the Template is invalid or not yet selected, the ‘General template’ form will appear.
|
|
Forms
 |
A form to enter the event information displays. If you do use this form, you can make use of the ‘Lists of Values’ and other validation as you are entering data.
By double-clicking in the worksheet below row 10, this will give the same result.
|
|
Clear Status Columns
 |
This icon enables you to remove status column information from the worksheet:
Clear Status Columns – This only clears the Status Columns and not the ID’s.
Clear Status and ID Columns – This clears the Status Columns and ID’s. This functionality is helpful if you have downloaded an existing record and would like to clear the ID’s to enable you to use this as a template to create a new record.
Note – If a Wizard does not have ID columns and this option is selected, a message will appear stating there are no ID columns but all statuses have been cleared.
|
|
Normalization
 |
Used for formatting data by adding duplicate parent rows based on child rows and removing duplicate parent rows respectively.
Denormalise Date - The data is useful for when you need to sort the data in Excel. Click the Denormalise button and it will duplicate header data for the rows containing child data. Once you are finished sorting the data then you can Normalise the data to remove the duplicate headers and prepare it for upload.
Normalise Data - The data is used to prepare data for upload in the Wizard, whether you’ve just Denormalised it for sorting or imported the data from an external source with duplicate headers. Normalisation will only affect sections that have children with multiple rows of data.
Both functions will affect all the records on the active sheet.
