-
In the VPM
Lifecycle Navigator Web environment, log on to CES, and
search for a class, as described in the How to section of
Searching Classes Using Admin Browser.
Once you have a list of items displayed in the
AdminSearchResults
window, select one item.

-
Right-click the selected item and from the
contextual menu select Edit.

-
In the Edit Page,
the current values for the selected item are shown. The attributes
displayed vary depending on both the class and the individual item
selected.
-
You can edit the current item by changing the
current values. Values can be changed directly, by entering the new
value in the text field, or, when applicable, using the Query Builder /
Valid Values button to the right of the text field. Query
Builder and Valid Values are explained extensively in the CES
Enterprise Navigator User Guide, so will not be covered here. For
more information on Query Builder and Valid Values, refer to
CES Enterprise Navigator User Guide : User Tasks : Searching the
Database : Using Query Builder and CES Enterprise
Navigator User Guide : User Tasks : Searching the Database : Using
Valid Values. In this example, the
Value attribute has been
changed from NO to
YES so the
Pricing
and Availability tab will be displayed in the
Properties window.

-
Some attribute fields let you select the value using
the Select Item
button
. This button displays the Item
Selector Page, from which you can select the value
to use. Just select the desired value and click
OK.

-
Back in the Edit Page,
once you have made all the necessary changes, click
Save to save the changes.

-
In addition to changing existing items, you can also
insert items. From the Edit Page,
click Clear, just to
clear the current attribute values.

-
Now, enter the attribute values for the item you
wish to insert and click Insert.

-
If you repeat your search on this class, you will
see your newly inserted item.

-
Select this item, right-click and select
Edit. The newly created item
appears in the Edit Page.

-
You may occasionally need to delete an item from a
class. To delete an item, search for that item in the class,
right-click on the item and select
Edit to get it into the
Edit Page. From here you can
delete it. To delete this newly created item, just click the
Delete button. The
Edit Page reappears with all
previous attribute values removed.

-
At this point you can click
Cancel to close the
Edit Page. If you search the
class, you will see your new class item has been removed.
-
Please note
that if you want to create a new entry, you can do that directly
from the
AdminSearchResults
window using the
New
button. Return to the
AdminSearchResults
window.

-
Click the
New
button. The Edit Page appears.

-
Enter the
desired information and click
Insert.
Search the class again and you will see your new entry.
