Link Record
 
Whenever you create a new service entry, you can link it to the main asset.  This allows you to make a change in the main view which will also apply to the linked service history entry in the detail view.  For example, changing the next service due date in the main view will also change the next due date in the service entry.  Please note: making a change in the service entry does not change the main view.  You can only link one record at a time.  By default, whenever a new service entry is created in Service Entry or Certificates, the service entry is automatically linked.  Only an Administrator user account can manually link or unlink a record.
 
1. Right-click the service entry row to bring up the context menu and select Record -> Link.
 
 
2. Click OK to close the pop-up message.
 
 
3. The LINK column will display a linked icon to indicate that the service entry has been linked.  Linking a service entry will also add the unique SERVICEID number to the asset's SERVICEID column in the main view.
 
 

 
Unlink Record
 
1. Right-click the service entry row to bring up the context menu and select Record -> Unlink.
 
 
2. Click OK to close the pop-up message.
 
 
3. The linked icon will be removed from the LINK column to indicate that the service entry has been unlinked.  Unlinking a service entry will also clear the asset's SERVICEID column in the main view.

2. Select your file and click on Open.
