Setups

By default, there are three different views in HH Data Management that allow for viewing of the setups. Only the setups view is used to actually edit the setups.

Reference mode and change highlighting​

Changes between setups will be highlighted. The reference mode for the changes can be changed between the following options:

  • Consecutive: changes will be calculated by comparing the two setups beside each other
  • First: changes will be calculated by comparing all setups to the first setup (the left-most setup)
  • Selected setup: changes will be calculated by comparing all setups to the selected setup. The selection varies slightly between the views. Please review the respective view documentation for further information.

Setups can be imported and exporting using the buttons on the ribbon bar. The import setup functionality must be defined in a plugin. The behaviour of the export setups button can also be customized in a plugin, however it also offers a default behaviour of letting the user select an existing data export profile to be used.
