Editing an SCC List

Security Classification Code lists determine the options you can select when using a Security Classification Code type field. Your system administrator may restrict who is allowed to edit SCC lists.

About this task

Note:

  • Not all fields of this type use the same list. The name of a list may indicate what fields it is used by.

  • The Security Classification Code lists, and the fields they apply to, are defined in the database design.

  • The name may only be changed in iBase Designer.

Procedure

To edit SCC lists:

  1. Click the Description box and enter or edit the description. For example, use this to give a useful hint on where the list is used.

  2. In the Items list, click to select an item:

    1. To start editing the text, click again.

    2. To delete the item, right-click and select Delete Item.

    Note: Do not edit or delete items that are used in data records.

  3. Add a new item using the blank item at the bottom of the list.

  4. Click OK to confirm your changes and close the dialog. Other users who are logged on to the database will continue to see the old list until they close and reopen the database, or display the SCC List dialog and then click OK to close it (which updates the contents of all the lists).
