Collection Location

Tutorial: Video starten

There are 2 hierarchy available for collections (showing the whole hierarchy or only the parent datasets):

  • Administration
  • Location

To enable the location hierarchy, either in the custom settings - in the menu choose  Administration - Customize display...  and then in the Defaults and miscellaneous tab set the option or in the collection window click on the in the top.

By default the hierarchy according to the administration is displayed (see example below).

The location nodes in the tree indicate that these nodes have a location parent, different from the administration parent. To change to the hierarchy according to the location select the  option underneath the hierarchy (see below).

To set resp. remove a parent location click on the     resp.    button. With the    button a window will open where you can choose the parent location for the current dataset.

After changes in the collections or their hierarchy a botton will remind you to save the changes in the cache tables.

As an alternative to transfer collections in the list as children into another parent location, click on the Transfer to location button in the upper left corner with a brown background, right of the Transfer to parent collection that refers to the administrative hierarchy of the collections. A Window will list all locations in the current database and the software will ensure that the transfer will not lead to loops in the hierarchy. Transfers that would result in a loop will be listed in an error message.
