POSM Webs session search has been resigned for more powerful search options into a POSM database.
A user may search by Any template which will search POSM’s indexed fields for each template, or they may choose a specific template to search sessions.
For commonly used search items such as Project Name, Dates, Start (Upstream) ID, End (Downstream), Asset ID, Inspection Direction and Locations the user may type in values to dropdown box. More than one search box may be used at one time. To begin searching for a value type in the first letter or number of the value to search. The system will begin searching for matching values once a value has been entered. Using the % value will search for matching values with a wildcard option. For example, S% would search for all values with S at the beginning of the value.
Advanced Search allows the user to search for multiple fields at the same time with And/Or statements.
With an And search the values searching must be part of the session.
With an Or search the values can be either value entered as part of the search.
Conditions may be added to the search by pressing the + button and then selecting Add Condition.
Group Searches may be created by pressing the + button and selecting Add Group option.
In this example the user is searching for all sessions in the project TC4 that have Deposits or Roots in them.
After a session is checked the user may view or edit the header information by clicking Edit Headers.
Each tab of the header will display up to 10 header fields for the selected tab. A template in POSM may have up to 20 tabs of data. If the user has permissions, they may edit these header fields. To Save any changes press the orange Save button on the bottom right of the window. To close the header without saving press the grey Close button.
