Project Tab

English | Deutsch

Unless otherwise indicated, these commands apply to the project that is currently selected in the project list. There are three ways to select a project and apply a command:

Note: For secure databases, access to the commands on this tab may be restricted based on the permissions assigned to the user account.

Management

  Create Project adds a new project to the current database. At a minimum, you must specify the project name.

  Open Project opens the selected project.

  Close Project closes the project that is currently open/visible and all of the analyses it contains.

  Edit Project Properties allows you to view and edit the properties of the selected project.

  Duplicate Project creates a copy of the selected project. The new project will have the same name as the original with an increment number added to the end (e.g., Project_1, Project_2, etc.).

  Delete Project moves the selected project to the recycle bin.

  Transfer Project is available only in Xfmea/RCM++/RBI. It allows you to create a new project with data transferred from the selected project. (See Transfer Projects in the Xfmea/RCM++/RBI documentation.)

  Task Numbering is available only in MPC. It allows you to specify whether or not you want to reuse task numbers within the project. (See Task Numbering in MPC in the MPC documentation.)

  Manage Projects opens the Manage Projects window, which allows you to edit the security settings and properties of all projects in the database in one location.

  Import/Export gives you the option to open either the Import or Export wizard. The Import wizard allows you to import projects, resources or items from an existing database into the current database, while the Export wizard allows you to export to a new or existing database. (See Import, Export and Data Conversion.)

  Configurable Settings is available only in Xfmea/RCM++/RBI. It allows you to view/modify the configurable settings for the current project. (See Configurable Settings in the Xfmea/RCM++/RBI documentation.)

  Restore Points gives you the option to utilize restore points, which are exact replicas of the project at a particular point in time (i.e., backups). To create a restore point for the selected project, use the Create Restore Point command. To restore all data from an existing restore point, use the Restore Project command.

  Check In/Out allows you to check out the selected project and make it available for editing only to you, while all other users in the database have read-only access to the project. No other user can edit the project unless you check in the project or undo the check out.

  Recycle Bin

  History Log is available only if you are the project owner or have the applicable "manage projects" permissions. It opens the Project History Log window, which allows you to activate and deactivate the history log for the project and, if the history log is currently activated, to view changes that have been performed throughout the entire project, with any Synthesis application.

  Project Planner opens the Project Planner, which provides full project planning and management capabilities for the current project. This command is not available in MPC.

E-mail Project

  Pack and E-mail compresses a copy of the selected project to a *.rsgz10 file and attaches it to a new e-mail message. If no e-mail program is installed or no default e-mail program is defined on the computer, a message notifying you of this will be shown.

Security

  Project Security is available only for public projects in secure databases. It opens the Project Properties window with the Security tab active, where you can specify the user accounts that can view/modify the selected project.

  Change Owner allows you to assign a different database user to be the owner for the selected project.

  Lock Project moves the project into the Locked heading of the project list. When a project is locked, all database users (including the user who locked the project) will have read-only access to the project. In addition, a locked project cannot be deleted or have its properties and public/private status edited. To unlock a project, choose Unlock Project. (See Locked and Unlocked Projects.)

  Make Private moves the selected public project into the Private heading of the project list. (See Public, Private and Reference Projects.)

  Make Public moves the selected private or reference project into the Public heading of the project list.

  Make Reference moves the selected public project into the Reference heading of the project list. This command is not available in MPC.

Current Item

The following commands are available when you select a specific item (a diagram, report, multiplot, etc.) in the current project explorer. This group is not available in Xfmea/RCM++/RBI or in MPC.

  Edit brings the selected item to the front of the windows and activates it as the current control. If an attachment is selected, the command opens the attachment in the appropriate application, if that application is installed on your computer.

  Rename allows you to rename the selected item.

  Duplicate creates a copy of the selected item within the project. The duplicate will have the same name as the original with an increment number added to the end (e.g., RBD1_1, RBD1_2, etc.).

  Delete deletes the selected item. There is no undo for delete.

  Item Properties is available only for project explorer items (e.g., folios, diagrams, plots, etc.). It opens the Item Properties window, which allows you to view and edit the item's Synthesis identifiers, item settings (if applicable) and item permissions (in secure databases).  

  Locator Link is a link file (similar to a Windows shortcut) that provides quick access to the specific analysis. In an enterprise database, you can choose to Save or E-mail the file. In a standard database or Synthesis file, the only option is to save the file. In Xfmea/RCM++/RBI, these commands are available in the System Hierarchy tab. In MPC, they are in the Systems, Structures or Zones tab.

Synthesis

  Resource Manager opens the Resource Manager window, which allows you to view and edit all of the resources (URDs, models, tasks, etc.) available to the selected project. This command is not available in MPC.

  Batch Properties Editor opens the Batch Properties Editor, which allows you to perform batch editing of most types of local resources in the current project. In BlockSim, it also allows you to edit the blocks used in the diagrams. This command is not available in MPC.

  Attachments is available only in Xfmea/RCM++/RBI and MPC. It adds linked or attached files to the selected project. In other Synthesis desktop applications, attachments commands are available in the current project explorer, and in the Insert tab of the ribbon.

Data Management

The following commands are available only in BlockSim.

  Mirror Group Manager opens the Mirror Group Manager window which allows you to add, view and edit groups of mirrored blocks within the project that is currently open/visible. (See Mirroring (Using Blocks in Multiple Locations) in the BlockSim documentation.)

  Maintenance Group Manager opens the Maintenance Group Manager window, which allows you to add, view and edit the maintenance task groups available to the project that is currently open/visible. (See Maintenance Groups.)

Reports

  MRBR is available only in MPC. It allows you to generate a maintenance review board report in Microsoft Word. (See Maintenance Review Board Reports in the MPC documentation.)
