Key Hook Header Data

At the top of the module window you will see header data. This data remains at the top of your screen as you use the tabs to navigate through the record. The header fields are described in the table below:

Field Name

Definition

Hook Number

This is a user-defined field allowing you to uniquely identify the key hook.

Note: This field is required in order to save the record.

Key Code

This field allows you to choose a code from a pick list. This list comes from the Key Code Setup module. To access the pick list, click the field caption button or press F9.

Key Description

Upon choosing a Key Code above, this field will be automatically filled by the system with the corresponding information.

Key Ring Name

This field allows you to choose from the Key Ring module pick list. To access the pick list, click the field caption button or press F9.

Note: You may only have one Key Code or Key Ring Name for each Key Hook. You cannot have both a Key Code and a Key Ring associated with a hook.

Inventory

This field allows you to include the total number of keys in inventory.

Issued

This field allows you to indicate the number of keys issued from the number of keys in inventory.

Key Ring Issued

This field allows you to indicate the number of key rings issued from inventory.

Keys Remaining

This field will be calculated automatically by the system. This field will subtract the number of keys issued from the number of keys in inventory. When keys are issued to personnel in the grid provided, the Issued and Keys Remaining fields will be automatically updated by the system.

Note:  When keys are issued to personnel in the Individual Keys module and assigned to a key hook, the inventory amounts in this record will be updated to reflect that change.  For further information on the Individual Keys module, please reference the help guide.
