Add Shift Logbook Entry#

🔒 ShiftLogbook.AddEntry

Overview#

This operation is used to create a new Entry in the Shift Logbook.

Setup#

No special setup is required other than to meet the preconditions of the transaction.

Preconditions#

  • The Shift Logbook exists, it is Active and its system state is Open.
  • The current date/time of the system falls within the Shift Logbook defined Shift (lookup by Area, CalendarDay and ShiftDefinitionShift).

Note

By design, the system is not checking that the current date and time is within the Calendar Day - ShiftDefinitionShift of the Shift Logbook; this is to allow the user to add entries after the Shift has finished.

Sequence of Steps#

Step 1#

  1. Once the Shift Logbook is selected, select Add Entry.
  2. Add a title for the entry.
  3. Select a Category (values are taken from the lookup table ShiftLogbookEntryCategory Lookup Table and a Severity (values are taken from the ShiftLogbookEntrySeverity Generic Table) for the entry. Optionally, select a Resource relating to the Area and to this specific entry.
  4. Enter a description for the entry - it is possible to use Rich-Text Format (RTF) by selecting the text and right-clicking on it.
  5. Select Add to complete the operation.
