Editing trims

In Infor Fashion PLM, you have two ways to edit main trims: normal mode and locked mode. To edit a trim in normal mode, click the Edit icon on the toolbar or right-click a record and select Edit.

Another way to edit a trim is in locked mode. To edit a trim in locked mode, open the Trim panel. Right-click a trim record and select Edit in Locked Mode.

Editing a record in locked mode opens the details page of a trim and enables a search-and-scan field on the toolbar. By locking trims, you can:
  • Browse records seamlessly.

    Click Previous Record and Next Record to view trims without closing the current trim details page that you are viewing.

  • Search for and open records instantly.

    In the Search field, type the trim number of the record that you want to edit and press Enter on your keyboard. This takes you directly to the details page of the trim.

  • Maintain a consistent view of tabs and panes.

    Click any tab on the current trim details page and open any pane in the sidebar. When you open the previous or next record, the trim is displayed with the same active tab as the previous trim details page.

    When editing an attachment from an existing record, there is no need to rename the file with edited values. You may resave the attached file with the original name.

Note: If a user opens a record that is used by another user, a message is displayed to indicate that the record is locked and can be viewed in read-only mode.

A read-only mode in a record disables the user to edit the information. Editing the Status column in the grid is also disabled.

If a user opens a record that is recently edited by another user, then the record is automatically refreshed to ensure that the latest updates are included.

If the application closes unexpectedly, the record is locked to the user editing the same record. Only the user that last edited the record can re-open the record by clicking Edit or Lock and Edit to continue editing the record. The record is then locked from other users.
