Segment values (CS203000)

This topic provides information about the elements in this window in Visma Net, such as fields, field values, buttons, and check boxes.

Segments are components of the segmented key, which was defined on the Segment keys window, and segment values can be used to create different IDs.

For each segment with the Validate option selected on the Segment keys window, you should populate the list of possible values before users start to create new objects by specifying their IDs.

You can add new values to the list of segment values at any time. Some values in the list may be marked as inactive (by clearing the Active check box for them). Inactive values will not be used for creating new objects, but they can appear in old objects.

The top part

Here you select the segment for viewing or editing its values.
