OpenPROTRAK Item
The OpenPROTRAK Item Subsystem defines the equipment that is tracked by OpenPROTRAK.
For additional information, select one of the subjects below.
Return to OpenPROTRAK.
An OpenPROTRAK Item must also exist as an OpenMETRIC Item. When you click New|Clear, you can type in a new item id, or you can choose from a list of OpenMETRIC Items.
When you type in an item id, and that item does not exist on the OpenMETRIC Item file, this is referred to as a “new add”. When you click New|Add, validation occurs, and if the data is valid, the system writes an OpenMETRIC Item record as well as a OpenPROTRAK Item record.
When you are in add mode and you choose from the list of OpenMETRIC items, the system retrieves information from the OpenMETRIC item file in order to display it on the screen.
Fetching Items
There are several ways to access items in the OpenPROTRAK Item window. As with any of the data subsystems, you may enter your id and click the bulls-eye on the toolbar. You may “short key” the id and click the “next” button on the tool bar. Or you may just scroll through the records, forward or reverse. You may use the first record or the last record buttons on the tool bar, or you may use the search button on the tool bar.
As you observe the Identification block, you will notice 2 buttons adjacent to the item id. The button to the left, which has the label “Item” on it, will display the most Recent Items that you have fetched. If you click a line and click OK, the selected item is fetched and displayed on the item window.
There is a Record Finder button to the right of the item id field that displays a paged list box of all items currently in the OpenPROTRAK Item file. You may filter these records if you wish to show only records matching some criteria.
Components and Test Stations
If the displayed item is a test station, you can view a list of its components by pressing the Component Of button immediately to the left of the Component Of field.
The field finder on the right may be used to list the valid test stations. If you are entering or updating an item, you may select a value by clicking the line and clicking OK. That value will be used as the Component Of value.
Contract Information
Information related to the contract or program is specified in the Contract frame.
Location, Facility, and Picture
The location field is the most recent known location of the item. The By and Date fields identify the person who last confirmed the location and the date on which it was confirmed.

The Phys Inv and Date fields indicate when the location for the item was entered via the On-Line or Scanned Inventory function.
